Foul on Suresh near the halfway line and India gets a free-kick. 

India needs to assert its authority in the match. So far, it has been all Vietnam apart from Farukh’s attempt from distance. 

Bheke’s challenge on the edge of the box is deemed a foul by the referee. However, the referee points to the spot, it is a penalty.

Gurpreet saves the spot kick. The Indian custodian makes a good lunge to the left and denies the Vietnamese captain. 

Farukh lets it rip from outside the box and tests the Vietnamese custodian. The Indian striker nutmegs a player with supreme confidence before shooting. 

Roshan goes on a driving run from the left flank and wins a corner for India. 

Chhangte’s corner is delt well by the Vietnamese defence. 

The Golder Star Warriors takes the first shot of the game but fortunately for the Blue Tigers, it was off target. 

Vietnam starts the match with intensity. It is using its speedy wide players to get in behind the Indian defence.
