Macau: Stephen Constantine has set his sights on securing India’s place at the Finals of the AFC Asian Cup in 2019 next month when his team face Macau in the teams’ return clash after seeing his team pick up a 2-0 win against them on Tuesday evening.
Balwant Singh scored twice as India maintained their perfect start to qualifying in Group A and, with nine points from their first three games, a win on October 10 against Macau will take India back to the continental championship.
“We need another three points (to qualify), we play Macau at home and I would expect us to take three points there,” said the English coach.
“It will be tough as well because they sat back with an eight, nine man defence which, you know, I expected them to do. But, they did well.
“I think, we are not used to having to unlock the door like that and this was where we had a few issues.”
