Blue Tigers touch down in Auckland ahead of historic New Zealand friendlies by Arya Banerjee, ​The Indian national football team has officially arrived in Auckland, New Zealand, ahead of their landmark two-match international friendly series. The tour marks a momentous occasion in Indian football history, as the Blue Tigers step onto New Zealand soil (Aotearoa) for the very first time. ​The squad kicked off their journey from Bengaluru on November 8 around midnight, making a short layover in Kuala Lumpur before landing at Auckland Airport at 23:30 local time (16:00 IST) on Monday, November 9. ​Greeting the squad was a crisp 16°C late-spring drizzle. However, spirits in the camp remained buoyant, with players focused on the task at hand despite the exhausting transit. ​Speaking to AIFF Media upon arrival, India head coach Khalid Jamil expressed confidence in his squad’s fitness and readiness. ​"The flight was smooth, and the players are fit and ready. We have settled in well. This is the first time the Indian team has come to New Zealand, so it is a new experience for us. We are looking forward to the matches," Jamil stated. ​Addressing the climate shift, Jamil added: "The weather is not a problem. The players are adjusting well, and we will focus on our training and preparation." ​India will initiate their training with an activation session on Tuesday morning, followed by a tactical pitch session at North Harbour Stadium at 16:00 local time. They will conduct their official match-day minus one (MD-1) session at the Go Media Stadium on Wednesday. ​Reflecting on the formidable challenge of facing New Zealand on their home turf, Khalid Jamil called upon the local Indian diaspora to turn out in large numbers. ​"I know there are many Indian fans here in New Zealand. I would request them to come to the stadium and support the team. Their support is important for us, and we will try to give our best on the pitch," he urged. ​1st Friendly: Go Media Stadium, Auckland — November 12, 11:40 AM IST ​2nd Friendly: One New Zealand Stadium, Christchurch — November 15, 08:40 AM IST
