While head coach Chaudhuri was full of praise for his boys who managed to hold on to the 1-0 lead against Bhutan despite being down to nine men, he also pointed out how India still need to improve while going forward.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
\u201cThe way our boys fought after the two red cards is indeed commendable. It\u2019s not easy to set a stable formation with nine players, but they managed to hold the fort. It speaks a great deal about their character,\u201d said Chaudhuri.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
\u201cNot only did they hold the fort, but they also broke through Bhutan\u2019s defence a few times. Finishing is perhaps the one area we have to work on,\u201d Chaudhari told aiff.com.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
Midfielder Manjot Singh Dhami agreed with his coach and felt that the team could only improve from then on.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
\u201cWe can play much better than what we did, and we must show that in our next game. We must work on our combination and communication. But I feel the more matches we play here, the better we will get,\u201d said Dhami. \u201cThis is the competition phase, after all. It\u2019s all about what attitude we approach these games with.\u201d<\/p>\r\n\r\n
As India prepare for the next match against Maldives, two of their players, Pramveer and Vanlalpeka Guite will be suspended after being sent off against Bhutan. However, the Blue Colts head coach is not overwhelmed by the situation.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
\u201cWe can play much better than what we did, and we must show that in our next game. We must work on our combination and communication. But I feel the more matches we play here, the better we will get,\u201d said Dhami. \u201cThis is the competition phase, after all. It\u2019s all about what attitude we approach these games with.\u201d<\/p>\r\n\r\n
