Asian Cup qualifiers 2027: India lose to Bangladesh in football after 22 years

India lost to Bangladesh for the first time since 2003 and, after five matches, are the only team to have not won a match in group C of 2027 Asian Cup qualifiers.

- Dhiman Sarkar

Shekh Morsalin's 11th minute goal following a swift break fetched Bangladesh their first win against India since the 2003 SAFF Championship in Dhaka. This was India's second successive defeat in the campaign after the 1-2 loss at home to Singapore last month.

With both teams out of the finals race, this was about bragging rights and over 23,000 who had packed Dhaka's National Stadium heaved with relief at the final whistle. For India, it was again a case of not being able to find a way in the front third.
