Amogh Adige enters record books as youngest ISL coach in NorthEast loss

NorthEast United had a difficult home game against FC Goa, going down 2-0, but the coach on the sidelines, Amogh Adige, went down in the record books as the youngest to take charge of an Indian Super League club on an official matchday.

Head coach Juan Pedro Benali was unavailable after being sent off during the match against Mohun Bagan, and the duties were taken over by the 25-year-old, who has previously worked with the India Under-23 team.

Amogh holds both the UEFA ‘A’ and UEFA Elite Youth ‘A’ licenses and on Friday passed Noel Joseph’s record (27 years) to become the youngest coach to manage an ISL side.
