“Kuwait is a very good team, and we are aware of that. But we are going to face them with the same positive mindset, and will look to win. Like the coach said, the higher or lower ranking does not matter to us as we will approach every match with the same mindset,” said Chhangte.
India have been largely impressive in the tournament, defeating Pakistan 4-0 and Nepal 2-0 to maintain a clean sheet so far.
Chhangte attributed it to the team’s ability to execute plans on the field.
“The team is gelling really well on and off the field. We have a great bond. The main reason is that we have been able to put into practice what we have been taught during the training.
“We have been working on several things like coming through the wings and giving crosses, and they are coming off really well for us,” he said.
