January: The Indian football team suffered a 0-3 defeat against mighty Uzbekistan in their AFC Asian Cup group match here on Thursday. India’s troubles were further compounded by defensive lapses which led to its second consecutive defeat in Group B.
India lost 0-2 to title contenders Australia in the first match but the performance of the players was appreciated. India’s performance against the Central Asian country at the Ahmed Bin Ali Stadium looked quite different from that against Australia. Uzbekistan had drawn against Syria in the opening match of the tournament and managed to register their first win in the tournament against the 102nd ranked Indian team.
Abbosbek Faizullaev (4th minute), Igor Sergeev (18th) and Nasrullaev (45+3) scored goals for 68th ranked Uzbekistan. India will now face Syria in their final group match on January 23.
