When 22-year-old Sumit Passi joined NorthEast United, a lot of Indian football following population had very high expectations from him.

Indira Gandhi Athletic Stadium, Guwahati was the stadium where he made his India debut against Laos and scored his first goal. But this season rarely has he seen the ground, which is the home ground of The Highlanders.

Coach Nelo Vingada has played Passi only for 45 minutes in total this season, and that too in two matches. The coach does not like to tinker with his playing combination, but now that he is marred by a couple of injuries, it would be great if we see Passi play a bit more.

The 18-year-old Chandigarh boy has 12 I-league matches under his belt in which he has scored 3 goals for Sporting Goa. He is one promising Indian talent and we would clearly like to see more of him.
