Igor Stimac's India will not deviate from their style of football as they gear up to face the Asian Champions...
One has to take a long walk down memory lane to find an instance when India had an upper hand against a west-Asian country like Oman for the lion's share of a match.
From defending with seven-to-eight players for the bulk of 90 minutes, India have now emerged as a side which dares to stick to their style of 'pass-and-move' even against quality sides. There's a conviction amongst the players that they can match their more illustrious counterparts in every department and the first half in Guwahati was a testimony to it.
