Preview: Hong kong vs India
India will take on Thailand with one eye on their June 10 Asian Cup match against Hong Kong as Manolo Marquez plays his first match as full-time manager of the national team (he left FC Goa after the ISL season ended earlier this year). A good performance here will be critical, especially considering Marquez's rough start to life as India coach. With only one win in six games (2L, 3D), he needs to get some winning momentum into the team pronto.Thailand, meanwhile, will not make for the easiest opponents. Unlike India, they have been in a decent vein of form over the past year. They reached the final of the ASEAN Championship in the beginning of the year (where they lost narrowly to Vietnam) and come into this game having won three of their last five matches. Their manager, Japan's Masatada Ishii has been with the team for two years now and has a good record: 12 wins and six draws in 24 matches. He'll have the same intention as Marquez -- experiment a bit but try to build up positive impetus ahead of their Asian Cup qualifier against Turkmenistan."It's a good friendly game for both teams because we are in a similar situation [preparing for their respective the Asian Cup Qualifiers]," said coach Marquez in a short, straightforward pre-match press conference.Thailand are currently above India in the FIFA rankings, coming in at 99 against India's 127.
