India Suffer Crushing 0–3 Defeat Against Uzbekistan in AFC Asian Cup 2023; Blue Tigers Remain at Bottom of Group B Points Table
The Blue Tigers succumbed to yet another defeat in AFC Asian Cup 2023 and are yet to get off the mark, both in terms of goals as well as points. India had earlier lost 0-2 to Australia in their first match of the competition.
India suffered a crushing 0-3 defeat at the hands of Uzbekistan in the AFC Asian Cup 2023 match on January 18 in Qatar. First-half goals from Abbosbek Fayzullaev (4th minute) Igor Sergeev (18') and Sherzod Nasrullaev (45'+4') put Uzbekistan in front and India needed a Herculean effort in the second to bounce back in this contest. The second half did not see any more goals and despite India coming close to scoring on a few occasions, there was no change to the scoreline. With this result, India remained at the bottom of the Group B points table with a second defeat in the AFC Asian Cup 2023 after losing the opening match to Australia.
