“We are ready as ever,” India U-16 National Coach Bibiano Fernandes, India U-16 National Team coach Bibiano Fernandes said on the U-16 team’s arrival in Tashkent, Uzbekistan on Saturday (September 14) for the forthcoming AFC U-16 Qualifiers.

India have been clubbed with hosts Uzbekistan, Turkmenistan, and Bahrain in Group B in the qualifiers, and first play Turkmenistan on September 18. Bibiano’s boys are currently on an 11-match winning streak, that extends from their tour of Thailand, to the SAFF Championship, and down to the two friendlies they played in Turkey, earlier this week.

“The team is as ready as ever for the AFC Qualifiers. We have all been preparing for these three matches for months now. We have our sights set firmly on them,” Bibiano stated after the team landed in Tashkent.

The 42-year-old believes that apart from playing in an invitational tournament (Torneo Del Nazioni) in Italy, and the two exposure tours in Thailand and Turkey, the Blue Colts also gained valuable experience of playing competitive International matches in the SAFF U-15 Championship last month.

“We have had a good preparation for the tournament over the last couple of months. The SAFF Championship certainly gave the boys good experience of International football, whereas we faced some tough opponents in Turkey. So all in all, it has been a was a good rehearsal.”

In regards to acclimatising in Uzbekistan, the head coach feels the boys would not have any issues in adjusting to the conditions after playing in the harsh weather back in Kalyani, West Bengal.

“I don’t think the weather in Uzbekistan would be much of an issue. It is basically optimum temperatur.
