Qatar U19: Most of these players might be the core to their World Cup 2022 team. Therefore, they were sent outside for practice matches, constantly. They play friendlies against European countries. We cannot compare our buildup to theirs. We are still far behind in that.
With this team at least we can rule south and south-east Asia. That is a step ahead from the current mediocrity. We should not expect to make a sudden jump in football standards. Babysteps are fine
@silicon3 your guess is as good as mine. I have no idea what happened to us in the second half. <div><br></div><div>One thing for sure, Qatar did not play like this in the 1st half, they were very reserve and tried to read the game and our players and they came guns blazing in the 2nd half.</div>
@nameWTHeld I second that, this team can realistically match top SEA sides like Thailand, Malaysia and Vietnam. Because India is constantly paired in the West group during tournaments, they hardly get to play the SEA and East Asian sides which they can surely beat.
@silicon3 very minimum chance of making it through the next round as the second best. We had to beat Qatar but we didn't. I am not expecting this team to beat Uzbekistan U19
