India vs Afghanistan World Cup 2022 qualifier: How to watch live stream
A chance to get into the AFC Asian Cup 2023
While the footballing world is currently focussing on the ongoing Euro 2020 tournament, the Indian national team will be fighting for a spot in the 2023 AFC Asian Cup against Afghanistan today.
India face Afghanistan in their final Group E match of the World Cup qualifiers. While India are already out from the 2022 Qatar World Cup, a win or a draw today will ensure that they will advance to the third round of the Asian Cup qualifiers. Currently sitting third in the table, a loss will mean India will drop to the fourth or fifth position and will have to go through a play-off round to qualify.
India’s current form is better than Afghanistan’s, coming from an easy 2-0 victory over Bangladesh in the last round, thanks to two clinical finishes from captain Sunil Chhetri. The winner will secure the third spot, but the final standings will have to wait till Bangladesh face Oman later today in the final fixture of the round.
