27' Iran turn up the heat

Iran force yet another corner, with Mehran Ahmadi sending it towards the near post, but it deflects out for a throw. Mohammad Naderi takes the throw from the left, and a series of quick passes sees Omid Nor Afkan weave his way past India’s defence inside the box. He attempts a cheeky scoop into the danger area, but Gurpreet Singh Sandhu reacts quickly to smother before an Iranian head can connect.

Score: India 0–0 Iran
