SAFF Championship: India beats Nepal, qualifies for semi-finals - Highlights
20' GURPREETTT!
What a save from GSS! Nepal gets a corner and they take it short, it's cleared from the box but falls to Sanish Shrestha. He takes a first time shot however GSS manages to punch it away.
16' What a miss from Sahal!
Sahal could have opened the account for India. Lovely ball from Naorem Mahesh to Sahal who is unmarked in the box. However Sahal shoots it just wide.
12' Thapa on the attack!
India keeps the possession, Mahesh Naorem wins the ball on the left and combines with Anirudh Thapa inside the box. Thapa tries to shoot but it is cleared and Nepal on a counter from there. Nikhil Poojary manages to avoid danger.
5' Nepal is not an easy opponent!
Team India can be better of quality but the first five minutes clearly shows the intent from Nepal. Nepal are defending with all their might, attempting for every second ball and are not allowing India to build up their play properly. Nepal are not sitting back to defend, they have made at least three attempts on the attack.
Here's how Team Nepal lines up!
