Delhi Dynamos goalkeeper Albino Gomes has welcomed the new India head coach Igor Stimac, stating that India were fortunate have a coach of his stature.
Stimac, a legendary name in Croatian football, has also earned cult status at English club Derby County and has represented West Ham United. The former defender was one of the key figures in Croatia's dream run to the semifinal of the World Cup in 1998 before coaching the Vatreni in the 2014 World Cup qualifiers where he managed to guide them to a play-off spot.
