23' Manvir wins a corner kick for India after a trademark, darting run down the right. Brandon sets up to take it, delivers into the box but the keeper gets a fist to it before winning a foul.
18' Nepal 0-0 India
India have been trying to build up few patiently through Liston and Manvir and Nepal defender Dinesh Rajbanshi has been a busy man so far. But every time Nepal is going on the counter, you can hear the home crowd cheering loudly! Going to be a tough nut to crack down for the Blue Tigers.
10' It's been an open game so far with both teams trying to attack in the early stages of the match. India are enjoying more of the possession but Nepal, buoyed by the home crowd, are defending with vigour!
1' The match begins with India getting the ball rolling. Immediately the Blue Tigers have a corner!
Starting XI analysed
It looks like a pretty decent line up with Sandesh Jhingan being the only name missing out due to injury.
Sana and Subhasish will pair up in central defence while Bheke and Akash Mishra man the full back positions. Brandon will be playing in an attacking role with Suresh and Glan as the two holding midfielders. In attack, Sunil Chhetri will have the fast legs of Manvir Singh and Liston Colaco on either side of him.
