East Bengal’s Mario Rivera - The ‘3+1’ foreigners rule will benefit Indian football

East Bengal head coach Mario Rivera believes that the Indian Super League (ISL) must consider reducing the number of foreign players in each team as it will be beneficial to the Indian national team and Indian football overall.

Recently Croatia national team coach Zlatko Dalic also spoke about reducing the number of foreign players in India as it would benefit the domestic talent.

Echoing the Croatian’s view, Rivera told Goal, “It is a difficult decision to take but if you think from Indian football and Indian national team’s point of view, then the 3+1 rule will be much better.
