"It was very hard to break them down as they were defending with eight or nine men. So, we are happy with the 2-0 victory." he added.
Constantine's boys have now remained unbeaten in eleven games on the trot since the AFC Asian Cup Qualifiers Playoff Round 1 match against Laos on June 2, 2016.
Constantine was also happy with Balwant Singh's effectiveness in scoring the winning goals after he came in as a substitute.
"Balwant scored two goals tonight. He did what he was asked to do. He could have scored four but I will take two," said Constantine.
India are scheduled to face the same opponents on October 10 in the return fixture in India.
