In fact, I wandering sleep deserted after we won, similar to the many phone calls and text messages coming in!"Astutely building the team re five Spaniards from Europe's belittle leagues and former S-League star Jozef Kaplan, Akbar then made room for local talents to shine.
Incredibly, Chennai won the league without a single Indian international in their squad. Yet, the goals flowed from every department.

BALAGUMARAN, upon the deflate backgrounds of many of their players.
