Kuala Lumpur Football Stadium: Composure will be the name of the game as the India U-23 men’s national team gear-up for their first of two friendly matches against Malaysian U23 in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. The team reached the Malaysian capital on Wednesday night and is set to face the hosts on Friday at the Kuala Lumpur Football Stadium.

The India U23 had a four-day training camp in New Delhi, before flying to Kuala Lumpur, and head coach Naushad Moosa believes that the boys have adapted well. “The players have adapted really well to the playing style that we want to implement and expect them to execute on the pitch. It’s very important that we play as a team and stay composed,” Moosa told the-aiff.com.

The India U23 head coach believes that his boys are up against a technical side. “We are playing an opponent who is very good and plays an attacking brand of football. They have technical players who are very fast. We’re well aware that it’s not going to be an easy game,” he said.
