5 young players who can make a mark against Iran

#2 Holicharan Narzary

Holicharan Narzary (R) shows his pace and trickery in the Indian Super League

The Assamese, Holicharan Narzary, is a very tricky winger India have. He's got the pace, the skills and the confidence to get past a defender on a one-on-one situation and this is what makes him one of the vital members of the national team.

He has played for both North East United FC and Dempo - contractually tied to the latter – and has impressed Constantine enough to earn a chance to represent India on the largest stage of the footballing competition there is yet.

Much like Udanta, Holicharan will really need to step his game up and contribute defensively to ensure India have a chance to securing points. Against Iran, he's going to have to play a smart game unlike his usual brash and quick game. While that might help going thick and fast through an attack, the physicality and the pace of the Iranians will give him little time to make things right.

Holicharan has an extremely bright future ahead of him and can learn from these kind of matches to ensure he's on the right path.
