The AIFF has called up 54 Under-23 players for the 2014 Asian Games preparations,
Those 54 players and the five seniors will first be part of a three-week training camp in Bangalore starting from July 1.
After that they will head for a two-week exposure tour to Spain. Their base will be in Marbella, southern Spain, and three practice matches have been lined up. The team will return to India in August and have another two-week training camp in Bangalore from the second week of August.
From the last week of August, they will have another exposure trip either in China, Japan or South Korea and after that they will head for the tournament.
No FIFA friendlies 6 dates in September Wim should use under 23 team as National team and play against nations atheist 5 matches and it will help in rising FIFA rankingsby Which will be helpful in getting ACL slots
1) Whats the rationale behind selecting oldies Sunil, Balwant, Robin for Asian Games?? We should use this opportunity to give chance to genuine Under-23 Forwards instead of same old names.
2) If this Band Baaja Baraat of 54 players are out of India till October, who will play in ISL Joke???
