Coaching Indian team a black point in my career: Marquez
Hindustan Times Rajasthan
|July 28, 2025
Manolo Marquez thought he knew football in India. And then the national team happened.
An ISL title followed by successive semifinal berths had made Marquez think that “more or less I know Indian football”. By 2024, he also thought his “capacity to improvise” was a lot better than when he first came to India as Hyderabad FC head coach in 2020. So, while on holiday in Canary Islands, Marquez applied for the national team’s job after Igor Stimac was sacked. “It was my dream,” he said.
Soon, it curled leading to the mutual separation with All India Football Federation (AIFF) earlier this month. In eight matches as India head coach, five of them against countries lower in the FIFA ranking, Marquez had one win, four draws and three defeats.
“My time with the national team was very bad,” he told HT in a virtual interview from Goa on Saturday. “The national team job isa black point in my career in India.”
