AFC Asian Cup qualifiers: India vs Laos - 5 players to look out for

#3 Gurpreet Singh Sandhu (India)

Gurpreet Singh Sandhu became the first Indian to start in a top flight match in Europe

Gurpreet Singh Sandhu recently became the first Indian to make a league start in a top flight European division match, when he made his debut for the Norwegian side Stabaek FC, keeping a clean sheet in a 5-0 win. The shot-stopper will start in goal having already collected nine caps for the national side.

Sandhu has been the number one goalkeeper in the Indian team since Stephen Constantine took over last year, with the English coach preferring him to veteran Subrata Paul. The 6 feet-4 inch keeper has shown what he is capable of in his previous performances for India, and will prove very difficult to beat in front of the goal.
