Qatar beat India 2-1 in the FIFA World Cup 2026 Qualifiers on Tuesday, June 11. The match, for a good part, seemed to be headed in India's favour after Lallianzuala Chhangte scored the opening goal of the match in the first half. India were able to maintain the 1-0 lead for a major part up until the 75th minute when Qatar got the equalizer, albeit under controversial circumstances. Yousef Aymen scored after the ball went out of play and the referee had not blown the whistle. Soon after, Ahmed Al-Rawi scored Qatar's second goal to complete the comeback for the Asian champions. India now have failed to qualify for FIFA World Cup 2026 with Qatar and Kuwait, who beat Afghanistan, going through to the third round. ‘Cheating…Daylight Robbery’ Angry Fans React After Controversial Goal From Qatar Marks End of India’s FIFA World Cup 2026 Qualifiers Campaign.
