"We can't play with six strikers. When it's an even game you have to be compact as well. Once chance can decide a game and I wanted to have Prince as an attacking player with speed at the end of the match. I also thought that Cleiton is a little bit tired and there was a chance to bring a fresh striker. Sunil (Chhetri) had an opportunity to score.
