Intercontinental Cup 2023: India beats Vanuatu, qualifies for final - Highlights

41' Chhetri soo closee!!

What a beautiful delivery from Mahesh Naorem, Chhetri just had to head that in. He misses, narrowly.

37' Gurpreet with a fine save!

Strong, accurate cross into the box from Vanuatu, Gurpreet makes an outing and punches it away. That is why he's still the number 1 of the Blue Tigers.

34' What a miss from Nandha!

Beautiful through ball from Mahesh Naorem, Nandha reads it well and he shoots it to an open net but narrowly misses it.

30' Free kick for India

Wohale fouled Mahesh and a free kick is awarded to India, however it goes pretty unharmed.

Wohale is booked!

26' The game has slowed down!

Humidity can be one of the reason that the team looks like they lost concentration, Liston and Nandha are spamming crosses into the box but none of them are reaching any of the teammates. 

21' So many good chances!

India is creating many good chances, but are missing the end product. Vanuatu is playing a very physical game.

15' Nandha so closeee!!!

Nandha will definitely get his debut goal tonight ? Nandha comes close to scoring again as Subhasish Bose slots in a good ball into the box, on his good days Nandha will be scoring it. However his shot is blocked.

9' India on front foot!

What a beautiful game is being displayed on the pitch from the Blue Tigers. Liston and Pritam overlapping through the wings are too much to handle for the Vanuatu defence. India is being careful in the defence as the set-pieces from Vanuatu is dangerous.

4' Beautiful backheel from Nandha!

Nandha bursts through the left flank, beats the Vanuatu defense and plays a beautiful backheel pass to Chhetri, his shot is blocked but what a great move by team India.

KICK OFF!

And the ball is rolling at the Kalinga stadium, team India will go neck to neck to get that win but Vanuatu won't be an easy opponent. India is playing from right to left.
