By IANS News March 14, 2024 • 18:14 PM View: 335

Central Coast Mariners FC: Igor Stimac, the head coach of India's senior men's football team, is quite optimistic as his squad prepares for back-to-back matches against Afghanistan in Round 2 of the Joint Qualifiers for FIFA World Cup 2026 and AFC Asian Cup 2027.

There are just a few days left for the March 2024 FIFA window, a crucial few days for the Blue Tigers, who will play two matches within a few days.

Stimac sounded optimistic about his side’s chances as they get ready for their two matches against Afghanistan, the first of which will take place in Abha, Saudi Arabia on March 21 (March 22, 12:30 am IST), and in Guwahati on March 26 at 7 pm IST.
