Ishan Pandita was impressive, he seems to have a calm head on his shoulders...coolly slotted home the penalty and almost scored a goal in regulation time when his diving header was just about parried away by Amrinder
Good that Stimac has given him a chance. Let's see how he performs for the NT; a tougher test awaits him there.
Ishan's runs were good. Always full of energy. He pressed both Fall and Hernan effectively who were undisturbed in the 1st half. Also his runs took one of them away and opened up spaces inside the box. Romario's chance was because of a situation like that. But Amrinder was in top form tonight.
If a keeper can be substituted after full-time, then what stops coaches from bringing in strikers for bad penalty takers.
If the referees missed the rule today, all of them should be given severe punishment. Even local tournament referees follow that rule. Has the rule changed?
In a World Cup 2014 quarterfinal Netherlands subbed their keeper and Tim Krool came against Mexico ( I guess) and did well. if you have unused substitute, you can you them. Even for striker if you want
Ishan as well as Vikrampratap shown some good movement yesterday. He always tried to turn towards goal and do something positive. He needs to work on his body, he was easily shrugged off. Playing 120 mins plus penalty not an easy task considering the bio bubble. Tremendous commitment by all of them.
