Live Stream of the India vs. Qatar FIFA World Cup Qualifier Football Match: Get the latest updates on the IND vs QAT FIFA World Cup qualifying match in Bhubaneswar.
Live Stream of the India vs. Qatar FIFA World Cup Qualifier Football Match: The Indian football team got off to a fantastic start in the FIFA World Cup qualifier last week, defeating Kuwait 1-0 on the road, and will now try to keep the momentum going when the action switches to Bhubaneswar. In their second encounter, India will face heavyweights Qatar at the Kalinga Stadium. Despite the fact that Qatar is significantly higher ranked than the hosts, the Blue Tigers will be bursting with confidence in front of a full venue. The team will also draw inspiration from their previous efforts against Qatar, which included a 0-0 draw at home. Gurpreet Singh Sandhu made 11 saves in the 2019 encounter.He expressed his optimism that he will have “less work this time” during the pre-match news conference.
In an intriguing decision, he will not be protecting the goalpost, putting the onus on Amrinder Singh. Manvir Singh, who scored in India’s 1-0 triumph last week, will also not in the starting lineup and will not be available as a replacement owing to a muscular problem.
Qatar, on the other side, enters the game after defeating Afghanistan 8-1. Almoez Ali, the Asian Cup MVP in 2019, scored four of the goals. Qatar’s recent play, however, has been disappointing, with two draws and two losses (including an 0-4 loss to Iran) in four friendlies since September. Meanwhile, the senior Qatar squad is visiting India for the first time, while its head coach, Carlos Queiroz, is returning for the second time. In 2015, he coached Iran to a 3-0 victory in the World Cup qualifiers in Bengaluru.
