In the AFC Asian Cup 2027 Qualifiers Final Round, India were held goalless by Bangladesh in the opening Group C match at the Jawaharlal Nehru Stadium in Shillong last night. The Bangladesh side showed better form in the initial half, generating more attacks and corner kicks, but failed to net the goal.

The second half saw India displaying improved control, applying substantial pressure on Bangladesh, yet struggling to goal. Sunil Chhetri also missed a couple of good chances.

However, Liston Colaco and Subhasish Bose impressed with their performances. India will next face Singapore and Hong Kong in Group C of the third round.
