Igor Stimac, Indian Football Coach, Sacked; AIFF Unhappy With Him For This Reason

The All India Football Federation (AIFF) has decided to sack Indian football team head coach Igor Stimac after the national side failed to qualify for Round 3 of the FIFA World Cup 2026 qualifiers. India were defeated 2-1 in their last match against Qatar - a result that meant the national side finished third in their group which also had Kuwait and Afghanistan. The decision came just weeks after Sunil Chhetri retired from international football after playing his final game against Kuwait. According to AIFF press release, the decision was taken after senior officials held a virtual meeting on Sunday.

India Legend Sunil Chhetri Pays Tribute To Croatia Great Luka Modric

Indian football legend Sunil Chhetri paid tribute to Real Madrid and Croatia great Luka Modric, just days after the Croatian himself congratulated Chhetri for his international career. On the eve of Chhetri's final India match against Kuwait, Modric had sent a video message wishing him good luck for the game. Now, Chhetri has responded to the tribute. The Indian great called Modric a "superstar", and wished Modric an injury-free Euro 2024. Modric, the 2018 Ballon d'Or winner, will take on Spain, Italy and Albania in Group B of Euro 2024.

"Nothing I Can Tell You Now": Coach Igor Stimac On His Future With Indian Football Team

Under-pressure India football coach Igor Stimac was non-committal about his future with the team after it crashed out of the 2026 World Cup qualification race following a controversial 1-2 loss to Asian champions Qatar in Doha. Qatar scored from a ball that had clearly gone out of play to equalise before adding a second to send India out of contention from the third round of World Cup qualification. A few weeks ago, Stimac had promised to leave if he failed in his "mission" to take India into the third round.

"Injustice": India Coach Fumes As Controversial Goal Ends Team's FIFA World Cup Dream

India football coach Igor Stimac said "injustice" was done and his team's "dream was killed" by the blatantly "irregular" goal that allowed Qatar to claw back and clinch the must-win World Cup qualifying match in Doha. India suffered a 1-2 defeat at the home of the two-time Asian champions to bow out of contention from the third round of qualification for the 2026 World Cup. The visitors were leading 1-0 before Qatar scored the contentious equaliser by dragging the ball back after it had crossed the line to go out of play.

Sunil Chhetri-Less India To Face Qatar In Crucial World Cup Qualifier Match

The influential Sunil Chhetri's absence will be a difficult void to fill as the Indian football team enters a testing transition phase with a crucial FIFA World Cup qualifying match against heavyweights Qatar in Doha on Tuesday. The 39-year-old Chhetri called time on his glorious international career by playing in last week's fixture against Kuwait in Kolkata, which ended in a goal-less draw as the team failed to give him a fitting farewell. Chhetri ended with 94 goals in 151 matches, having led the country with aplomb for more than a decade.

India vs Kuwait FIFA World Cup Qualifier LIVE: Sunil Chhetri And Co Off To Solid Start | India 0-0 Kuwait

India vs Kuwait FIFA World Cup Qualifier Live Updates: India are off to a good start against Kuwait in the FIFA World Cup 2026 Qualifier match on Thursday at the Salt Lake Stadium, Kolkata. It is a mammoth occasion as India captain Sunil Chhetri will be bowing out from international football after this match. Currently at the second spot in their group with four points, India will consolidate that position if they beat Kuwait. Afghanistan, who also have four points and play Asian champions Qatar simultaneously on Thursday, have a goal difference of minus 10 as compared to minus three of India and that is expected to decide which team goes through to the third round as second-place finisher in the group.
