Need to make sure that nobody gets injured - India gaffer Igor Stimac ahead of the clash against Vietnam and Singapore

The Durand Cup has just concluded and the Indian Super League (ISL) is inching towards its start. Hence, Stimac stressed that the players are still in a pre-season mood and need to be careful about injuries. With the AFC Asian Cup next year, the last thing the Blue Tigers need is injury to their crucial players. Stimac averred: “It’s a good challenge for us, though we need to make sure that we combine and rotate our players in a proper way. We need to make sure that nobody gets injured, because most of the players we have are still in pre-season mode, and they need to be nurtured. We need to be careful because we are facing two sides that are in full swing competitions.” Indian Football Team@IndianFootball#BlueTigers FIFA Friendlies to be broadcast live on @EurosportIN
