Kyrgyzstan
played
out
a
1-1
draw
against
World
No.
159
Myanmar
two
days
ago
and
was
a
surprise
result
for
many
as
the
weaker
Asian
outfit
played
the
long
game
of
defending
in
numbers
and
remained
patient
with
their
chances.
It
won’t
be
a
surprise
if
India
have
a
similar
approach
in
the
game
as
they
beat
the
nation
back
in
2017
with
a
similar
approach
1-0
as
Sunil
Chhetri
scored
late
in
the
game
to
help
India
qualify
for
Asian
Cup.
Chhetri
Their
coach
Aleksandr
Krestinin
is
often
credited
with
the
team’s
success
since
he
took
the
role
in
2014.
He
helped
the
side
recover
from
a
ranking
of
as
low
as
201
to
75th.
During
their
last
couple
of
encounters
with
India
during
the
Asian
Qualifiers,
they
were
ranked
135th
but
the
way,
Kyrgyz
dominated
the
game
across
the
two
legs,
the
gulf
in
talent
was
visible.
In
the
subsequent
Asian
Cup
in
2019,
where
India
made
group
stage
exit,
Kyrgyzstan
made
a
last-16
appearance
despite
being
clubbed
into
a
tough
group.
For
India,
coach
Igor
Stimac
may
make
a
few
changes
in
the
playing
11
with
no
new
matches
scheduled
in
the
coming
weeks.
Forward
Manvir
Singh
is
certainly
out
of
the
game
after
picking
up
a
knock
and
is
replaced
by
Sahal
Abdul
Samad
in
the
squad.
The
last
game
against
Myanmar
saw
Anirudh
Thapa
return
at
his
best
in
his
preferred
midfield
position
after
having
an
average
Indian
Super
League.
The
midfielder
also
scored
the
winning
goal
in
the
game
that
saw
Noarem
Mahesh
Singh,
Mehtab
Singh
and
Ritwik
Das
make
their
international
debut.
All
three
of
them
started
from
the
bench
and
were
introduced
in
the
second
half.
