2022 World Cup Qualifiers: Untimely Amarjit Singh Kiyam injury a big setback to India's hopes

It has been just a handful of games so far for Amarjit Singh Kiyam in the senior Indian National Team and the young midfielder has already managed to establish himself as a key member of Igor Stimac’s squad.

Hence, the news of his injury blow just days before the crucial 2022 FIFA World Cup qualifiers against Oman and Qatar could not have come at a worse time for the Croatian head coach.

In his limited appearances so far for the Blue Tigers, the former India U17 skipper has forged a promising partnership in midfield with fellow youngsters Sahal Abdul Samad and Anirudh Thapa with his tenacity and running at the base complementing the flair provided by the duo in front of him.
