I’m sure it’s the same for rival teams too. It is not easy to play three matches in five days. Now we have to take ice bath, eat good food and then be ready for the next match.

    India missed the opportunity to score a goal on a free kick

    India got a great opportunity to score a goal on a free kick when Gurkeerat Singh was ‘fouled’ near the Bangladesh box. Samuel Kinshi took a free-kick after advice from Chhetri but his shot from the left corner was saved by the Bangladesh goalkeeper. The first half remained goalless in which India got another chance to score but Rahul could not make full use of the cross inside the KP box and the shot went astray.

    India made three changes

    India made three changes in the match. In the last match, Gurmeet Singh had received a yellow card due to which Dheeraj Singh was replaced in his place. Rohit Danu played in place of Rahim Ali and Chinglensena Singh played in place of Sumit Rathi. India will have to show aggression in its upcoming match and will not miss any opportunity to score goals. Especially the forwards will have to play brilliantly.
