The AFC Asian Cup 2nd match of India vs Uzbekistan is going to be played on 18th January 2024, and the match will start at 8:00 PM Indian time.

Indian Football Team gave an amazing defensive performance against the mighty Australian team in the last match, but in the end, they lost by 2 goals, which is not bad for a team that ranked 102 against the 25 teams that featured in 15 FIFA World Cups. Indian defense was on the top of the Australian side, which is why the score line at half-time was 0-0, but after that, Australia felt more composed and scored the first goal in the 50th minute.

The second goal of the Australian Football Team was from the substitute Jordan Bos. With his first touch of the ball, he scored the 2nd goal. Deepak Tangri gave an amazing performance in his debut match for the Indian team as he kept the main striker of the Australian team, Mitchell Duke, silent.

What can you expect from the Indian Football Team against Uzbekistan?

As coach Igor Stimac said, India will look to be more attacking in the next match because they were all defensive in the last match and only created 1-2 chances, which Sunil Chhetri failed to score. India will try their best to get some points from both matches. They will look to play more attacking football, which is not going to be easy for the Indian team because they really don’t have a lethal attacker even though the captain, Sunil Chhetri, one of the best strikers in the world, stands alongside Ronaldo and Messi.
