Qatar looking more and more dangerous..
35 minutes in and the pressure from Qatar is relentless..
The Indian players are all defending in and around their own penalty box.
Ominous..!!

BIG chance missed..!!
An early ball by Ashique sets it up on a plate for Manvir who just can't get the contact right. Huge chance.

India firmly on the backfoot
Almost half an hour in and India are starting to hurry on the ball a little bit.
A night like this demands grit and composure, the first is visible, we will have to ensure we have the second.

It gets more difficult
More than 70 minutes to play with 10 me against a strong Qatari side..
This could be a long night now.

RED CARD..!!
Second Yellow for Rahul Bheke after he's judged to have handled the ball deliberately. Extremely disappointing for the defender after he had seen the first yellow for a previous tackle.
Harsh decision..!!

The Indian players are sticking to the plan and staying compact, but the Qatar side always looks dangerous in position. Another low ball in which is hit over the bar from close.
