The "tongue lashing" they got from head coach Igor Stimac at half time was the wake-cup call India needed to win the Intercontinental Cup, said national football team captain Sunil Chhetri. India failed to break Lebanon's defence in the first half before Chhetri's 87th international goal and Lallianzuala Chhangte's strike to help the hosts lift the title. "We got some tongue lashing from the boss at half time. We were nowhere close to where we were in the last game. It was the wake-up call that we needed," said Chhetri.
