ISL: Can Hyderabad FC's young guns in Rohit Danu and Akash Mishra prove their mettle in the big boy's league?

It is time for the two youngsters to announce their arrival at the biggest stage...

Rohit Danu and Akash Mishra were two bright talents handpicked by Hyderabad FC from the Indian Arrows team that participated in I-League last season.

Danu grabbed the headlines for the first time when he beat his fellow team-mate Jitendra Singh’s record of being the youngest ever goalscorer in the then top division of Indian football, i.e. I-League. He scored against Aizawl on January 5, 2019, at 16 years, five months and 27 days, beating the previous record of Jitendra, who scored when he was of 16 years, six months and 13 days.
