India Will Be The Dominant Team Against Maldives Says Head Coach Alexandersson
FIFA International Friendlies: The Indian senior women's team will take on Maldives in the first of two FIFA International Friendlies on Monday, at the Padukone - Dravid Centre for Sports Excellence. Head coach Joakim Alexandersson believes his side will be the dominant team.
The Swedish coach, under whom the India U20s have been training in Bengaluru since December 10, will take charge of the Blue Tigresses. 17 players, including senior internationals, have joined the camp for the friendly matches after which Alexandersson announced the 23-member squad.
The 48-year-old has settled well in Bengaluru and eagerly awaits his first match as India's coach. "I've been in Bengaluru for almost three weeks now. I'm starting to settle here now. I like it very much. The Sports School is very nice to have football sessions on. The girls live just beside the ground as well, so everything is good. The senior players have also joined us and we've had four sessions so far."
