2018 Intercontinental Cup: 5 players to look out for in the tournament

#4 Gurpreet Singh Sandhu

Gurpreet Sandhu has been solid at the back for India

Tough tasks are waiting for India ahead of the road. The Intercontinental Cup is, just, one of it. However, over the years, Indian Football team has risen from the sleep and has shown signs of progress.

India, recently, had recorded an unbeaten streak. While the entire team and coaching staffs deserve the credit, much more should be given to the shot-stopper, Gurpreet Singh Sandhu.

The Bengaluru FC goalkeeper was impressive and recorded numerous saves, which denied the opponents.

Unlike the previous opponents, India has to face better contenders. There is no denying that the opponents would attack fiercely. Hence, to prove the mettle, the defence needs to display a sturdiness.

Sandhu, in particular, will have to face intense attacks. He is appointed to guard the goal.

The Intercontinental Cup is going to be a real test for India's No.1 shot-stopper. The result, whatever be, will have an impact on his future.
