Down memory lane, a crucial 2-1 win over Tajikistan in the CAFA Nations Cup, and Indian football's historic moment in Grimsby Town inspire Gurpreet Singh Sandhu to aim high ahead of the Iran clash.
Indian football goalkeeper Gurpreet Singh Sandhu is a man on a mission. Recently, the towering goalie starred in India's 2-1 win over Tajikistan in the CAFA Nations Cup, which turned out to be a historic moment for Indian football. While speaking to the media, Gurpreet emphasized that his side is keen on doing even better in the upcoming match against Iran.
"We have a tough challenge against Iran, but we are confident. We will give it our all, and nothing is impossible in football. We will fight and hope to make our country proud," said Gurpreet Singh Sandhu.
While Iran is a stronger team, they have not won in their last three games. India is hoping to capitalize on that while also drawing inspiration from their historic moment in Grimsby Town.
"We have a great bond amongst ourselves, the players, and the staff. We have each other's backs on and off the field, and that helps us create a great environment to succeed. We are a close-knit group, and that will help us perform well in the future," he added.
Sandhu is keen to show his best ahead of the match, highlighting that his team is inspired more than ever before. The historic moment of Indian football in Grimsby town a few months ago where the Indian Super League side helped Grimsby Town to a 3-1 win over Harrogate in a friendly game still lingers in the minds of the players, fueling their ambition to do better.
"Grimsby inspires me to dream. My time there has helped me mature as a person and a player. The support I got there pushed me, and I want to give a part of that positive energy to my fellow Indian players and fans," he stated.
Sandhu's stellar performance in the Tajikistan match has captivated fans and critics alike. He has become a source of inspiration not only for his teammates but also for aspiring young footballers in the country. His dedication and determination remind us all that anything is possible in the beautiful game.
"I am looking forward to playing in front of our amazing fans back home. We will give our best, and I hope we can make us all proud," he added confidently.
