Last-minute penalty breaks Indian hearts in Hong Kong
Kowloon [Hong Kong], June 10 (ANI): A heartbreaking stoppage time penalty condemned India to a 0-1 defeat against Hong Kong, China, in Group C of the AFC Asian Cup Saudi Arabia 2027 Qualifiers Final Round at the Kai Tak Stadium, on Tuesday. In front of a raucous crowd of 42,570 at the newly opened stadium, substitute Stefan Pereira struck from the spot in the 94th minute, leaving the Blue Tigers with just one point from two matches in Group C. Singapore defeated Bangladesh 2-1 in Dhaka in the other match of the group to climb to the top of the table. Hong Kong, with the same number of points, are second, with Bangladesh and India occupying third and fourth spots, respectively. The atmosphere in Kowloon was electric. The Kai Tak Stadium, hosting its first football match, was packed to the rafters with fans vocally backing the home side. Energised by the occasion, Hong Kong started with tempo, purpose, and aggression. Their movement was sharp, and they worked the ball out wide, trying to stretch India's defence. However, despite their energy and possession, they struggled with penetration in the final third. India's defence, marshalled by Sandesh Jhingan and Anwar Ali, stood firm against repeated Hong Kong attacks, according to AIFF website. The hosts were forced into speculative long-range efforts, but India goalkeeper Vishal Kaith showed composure and positioning to deal with most attempts. On the rare occasions when Hong Kong slipped a ball through the defence, Kaith was quick off his line to smother the danger. India took time to grow into the match but found rhythm midway through the first half. Their approach was built on defensive discipline and counter-attacking bursts through the pace of Liston Colaco, Lallianzuala Chhangte and Ashique Kuruniyan. Brandon Fernandes operated effectively in midfield, distributing with intent and winning key duels. India's best chance of the first half came in the 35th minute. Fernandes pounced on a loose pass and released Colaco down the left. Colaco delivered an inch-perfect cross across the face of goal, and Kuruniyan met it with a well-timed run only to sky his effort, failing to trouble the goalkeeper. Six minutes later, Hong Kong threatened. A deep free-kick from Soares Junior Walter floated dangerously into the box, bypassing defenders and reaching Oliver Gerbig at the far post. His flicked attempt was met by a swift reaction from Kaith, who came off his line to block the shot before Anwar Ali cleared the danger. India began the second half with renewed aggression. Kuruniyan had another sight of goal just outside the box but was again unable to keep his shot down. To inject more quality in the final third, India head coach Manolo Marquez introduced Sunil Chhetri with a little over an hour to go. Chhetri made an immediate impact, dropping deep to facilitate link-up play and carving out half-chances for teammates. In the 82nd minute, Chhangte surged down the right and cut back a precise ball for Chhetri. The talismanic striker's shot was goal-bound, but a block from a Hong Kong defender denied him. Just as the match appeared destined for a second successive goalless draw for India, disaster struck. A long hopeful ball was floated toward India's box in injury time. Kaith charged out in an attempt to clear but mistimed his jump and collided with Hong Kong forward Michael Udebuluzor instead of punching the ball. Referee Sheikh Ahmad Alaeddin had no hesitation in pointing to the spot. Kaith, for his efforts, was shown a yellow card. Substitute Stefan Pereira stepped up and calmly slotted the penalty into the bottom corner, sending Kaith the wrong way and the home crowd into euphoria. For India, it was a cruel end to a match where they had held their own for 90 minutes. The focus now shifts to their fixture against Singapore in October. (ANI)

Indian football continues to slide as team suffers defeat to lower-ranked Hong Kong
There was no stopping Indian football's decline as the senior men's team, lacking in spunk, finishing skill and the will to fight, suffered a calamitous 0-1 defeat to lower-ranked Hong Kong in a crucial 2027 AFC Asian Cup Qualifier match here on Tuesday. Hosts Hong Kong emerged victorious after an injury-time goal by Stefan Pereira. The referee awarded Hong Kong the penalty after India custodian Vishal Kaith came out of the goalline and tried to punch the ball to safety, only to end up hitting Michael Udebuluzor and injuring the player. Pereira (90+4) stepped up to take the spot kick and shot the ball to the right of Kaith, who was also shown a yellow card for his injury-time foul. The latest reverse jeopardised India's prospects of reaching the next Asian Cup in Saudi Arabia, and the team is also set to drop to 133 on the FIFA rankings with Hong Kong gaining points and climbing up in the pecking order. It is a continuation of a series of disappointing results that the team has endured in recent years during which activities off the field grabbed more headlines than on-field performances, including the unceremonious exit of previous head coach Igor Stimac after an ugly dispute with his employers All India Football Federation (AIFF). Such has been the team's woes that head coach Manolo Marquez was forced to convince Sunil Chhetri to come out of retirement a year after he called it quits in international football. However, even his comeback has not been able to lift the team out of the abyss it has found itself in recent times. The future of Manolo, who succeeded Stimac while also holding on to his job as ISL side FC Goa's coach, is also uncertain with the national team. There is speculation that Manolo might request the AIFF to relieve him from his job. But sources in the AIFF said that he cannot do so unilaterally as he was appointed for a two year tenure. 'He can do so only after mutual agreement, that the AIFF gives him permission to part ways,' an AIFF source told PTI. 'We have not got any request in writing from Manolo that he wants to leave from the job. We can apply our mind only after he informs us what he wants,' the source added. As his wards went about fluffing the two-three clear chances that came their way, Manolo was seen expressing his frustration on the touchline. Earlier in the day, Manolo kept out veteran striker Chhetri from the starting XI. A sea of red packed the stands at the newly built Kai Tak Stadium but despite the strong home support, India did pretty well to create a few chances in the first half, even though Hong Kong enjoyed more possession. But, as has been the trend with them in recent times, the lack of finishing has again let the Blue Tigers down in the first 45 minutes. Among the opportunities that came their way before the half time break, the Indians came closest in the 35th minute but Ashique Kuruniyan shot the ball wide from a close range after Liston Colaco ran down the left to provide him a nice cross. Meanwhile, after having received medical attention after getting injured, Colaco unleashed a powerful long-range shot but it went straight into the keeper's gloves. Hong Kong also grew in confidence as the game approached the half time. The home team could have taken the lead from a free-kick had it not been for a timely clearance by Asish Rai from goal-mouth after custodian Vishal Kaith was beaten. Both India and Hong Kong have had their moments but neither side could convert in a tightly contested first half of this crucial 2027 AFC Asian Cup Qualifier. Kuruniyan, who has otherwise performed his job admirably on the flanks, looked to have got another chance to break the deadlock some minutes into the second half, but could not. Soon after, coach Marquez brought on India's all-time highest goal-scorer Chhetri alongside Naorem Singh in place of Kuruniyan and Brandon Fernandes. India created chances in the second half too, including in the 81st minute when Lallianzuala Chhangte found Chhetri with a brilliant cutback inside the Hong Kong box, but the veteran striker was not able to connect it well. The result is a setback for India who came into the game after a goal-less draw against Bangladesh in their first Asian Cup qualifying match, at home in March. India have one point from two games and are last in the group, and only one team from the pool of four will qualify for the final. India will now need to win their remaining four matches, but given their inability to score, it looks improbable.

Hong Kong punish India with injury-time penalty
India's Anwar Ali attempts to head the ball against Hong Kong on Tuesday Coach Ashley Westwood knows something about India's football team that most others don't. Formerly with Bengaluru FC , where he won a major trophy in each of his three seasons, in the three games that he fielded national teams against India, Westwood drew one and has ended up winning the other two. After the win with Afghanistan in March last year, which ended India's chances of direct qualification to the 2027 AFC Asian Cup and led to the sacking of coach Igor Stimac, on Tuesday, Westwood guided Hong Kong to a crucial win over Manolo Marquez's India. Playing at the Kai Tak Stadium which attracted a capacity 50,000 crowd for its opening game, Westwood's men needed a stoppage-time penalty to dismantle India 1-0, a result that throws the visitors' AFC Asian Cup qualification campaign into jeopardy. For 90 minutes, India appeared to have done enough to return home with a point. But Stefan Pereira's 95th-minute penalty took Hong Kong to the top of the table while India remained rooted to the bottom. In both games, home and away, India failed to score, never mind the chances that fell at several players' feet. Only the group winners qualify for the 2027 AFC Asian Cup in Saudi Arabia. For a side that hasn't scored in 180 minutes and embarrassingly missed chances from handshaking distance, it will be tough crawling out of what has seemed like a long, dark tunnel.

'Highly disappointed,' captain Sandesh Jhingan said after the loss. Coach Marquez threw a surprise with his lineup, opting to start with pacy wingers, while leaving the two recognised strikers – Sunil Chhetri and Edmund Lalrindika – on the bench. There was only one problem with the strategy, a familiar one: lack of finishing. Nowhere was this more evident than in the 35th minute when Brandon Fernandes dispossessed Leon Jones and laid it for Liston Colaco, who ran into the space down the left wing and played a delicious ball for Ashique Kuruniyan. A goal was there for the taking, but Ashique tried to push the ball inside the net with the outside of his left foot, only to turn it wide with the goal at his mercy. Liston and Chhangte, both cleverly picked up inside the box by Chhetri, also could not give finishing touches in the second half. While Liston skied his effort, Chhangte was thwarted by the keeper who dived at his feet. At the other end, Hong Kong, who fielded eight naturalised players – three born in Brazil, others in Spain, France, Scotland, Nigeria and Cameroon – had chances of their own but were denied by the centre-back pairing of Anwar Ali and Jhingan. Asish Rai hastily cleared Oliver Gerbig's attempt from close to the goalline. Just when it seemed like points would be split, there was disaster at the back. India conceded a penalty from a regulation long ball played inside the box as Kaith clattered into Udebuluzor. Hong Kong's Brazilian-born forward, Stefan stepped up and converted. 'There will be a dark mood back home, but there are four more games, we will never give up,' added Jhingan.
