Intercontinental Cup 2019: Igor Stimac - I believe in the quality of India's young players

Igor Stimac was a happy man after India ended their Intercontinental Cup campaign with a 1-1 draw against Syria.

Youngster Narender Gahlot scored his first international goal at just 18 years of age and the India boss praised the youngster’s performance.

“Whoever scores, each goal comes as a team effort. I’m happy for him because the first game was not too good. We were not happy about that, but why? Because I know how much he can do. A boy like him with a lot of quality in his legs must play as confidently as he did today.
