India Seek Inspiration From 2019 Stalemate Against Qatar In 2026 FIFA World Cup Qualifier

India will take inspiration from their famous goal-less draw against Asian champions Qatar four years ago when they face the same opponents in a 2026 FIFA World Cup second round qualifiers match in Bhubaneswar on Tuesday. Their confidence boosted after the 1-0 away win against Kuwait on November 16, India will hope to give a tough fight to Qatar, though the fancied visiting side will start as firm favourites. India had surprised the football fraternity when they soaked up waves of attacks to hold Qatar 0-0 on September 10, 2019 in their 2022 World Cup second round qualifiers in Doha. Qatar were then in red-hot form, having won the Asia Cup title in early 2019.

We Are Stronger And More Prepared For 2026 World Cup Qualifiers: Sunil Chhetri

Talismanic India striker Sunil Chhetri believes his team is "strong" and "more prepared" than previous occasions to make it to the next round of the FIFA World Cup 2026 qualifiers as the players have had good game time under their belts this year. The 39-year-old Chhetri will lead India into Round 2 of the FIFA World Cup 2026 and AFC Asian Cup Saudi Arabia 2027 Joint Qualification campaign when they take on Kuwait in the opening away tie on Thursday. The stalwart said the fine performances against international sides at home had given the team a more settled look. "I think it is just the morale of the team, or what has happened in the last 6-8 months. A lot of boys have taken their places in the team. And that is why we are probably more prepared," Chhetri told AIFF on Monday.

"Hope It Comes Soon For Us," Says Sunil Chhetri On India Reaching FIFA World Cup

Indian football skipper Sunil Chhetri anticipated the day when the 'Blue Tigers' will take part in the FIFA World Cup and expressed hope that this moment will arrive soon. In an interview with FIFA, Chhetri said that the country would go mad when India qualifies for the FIFA World Cup. "The day that happens, the country will go mad. As an Indian, it's going to be one of the best days of my life. There are so many people like me who can't wait to see that day, and I just hope it comes soon for us," Chhetri said as quoted by ISL's official website. He further added that it will be humongous when the 'Blue Tigers' achieve the feat. Chhetri also said that he will never forget that moment in his life.

Sunil Chhetri Admits He's In 'Bonus Period' But Yet To Decide On Retirement

By his own admission, Indian football talisman Sunil Chhetri is in the "bonus period" of his illustrious career but he has not set any retirement date. One thing is, however, certain that the 39-year-old Chhetri will not be playing in 2026 when the football World Cup happens. "I'm just happy that I'm here. This is the bonus period, I'm just enjoying it, I don't know when it's going to end. I just want to enjoy it," Chhetri said ahead of India's 2026 World Cup second round qualifiers matches later this month. "Because I'm 39, I don't have long-term targets as far as me being on the pitch is concerned. I think about the next three months, and then the next three months, and then we see how it goes," he was quoted as saying by fifa.com.

Igor Stimac Announces 28-member Probable For FIFA World Cup Qualifiers

Unlucky India Lose 2-4 To Malaysia, Bow Out Of Merdeka Cup

India lost 2-4 to hosts Malaysia in the opening match, a virtual semifinal to bow out of the Merdeka Cup in Kuala Lumpur on Friday. Malaysia took the lead as early as in the seventh minute through Dion Cools before Naorem Mahesh Singh equalised for India with a beautiful volley in the 13 minute. A silly challenge from Nikhil Poojary on Arif Amin inside the Indian box gifted Malaysia a penalty and Amin made no mistake in finding the net from the spot in the 20th minute. To make matters worse for India, Faisal Halim increased the score-line 3-1 in Malaysia's favour four minutes from half time.

Men's Football: India Lose 0-2 vs Saudi Arabia, Crash Out Of Asian Games 2023

A formidable Saudi Arabia didn't bring their 'A' game to the fore yet were strong enough to ward off a gutsy challenge from India winning their pre-quarterfinal match 2-0 in the men's football competition in Hangzhou on Thursday. There was no doubt about Saudi Arabia's supremacy as forward Mohammed Khalil Marran's opportunistic twin strikes in the 51st and 57th minute ended Sunil Chhetri-led India's campaign at the continental event. However, Igor Stimac's players can hold their heads high with the kind of performance that they put in despite so much uncertainty and with AIFF sending a second string side due to the obstinate attitude from the Indian Super League (ISL) organisers who refused to release top players.
