Igor Stimac's India pulled off one of their greatest results when they managed to hold Asian Cup champions Qatar to a goalless draw on Tuesday in Doha in a World Cup 2022 qualifying game.
India, heavily outranked by Qatar, were understandably under the pump against a fluid and in-form team. But India were set-up well, defended stoutly and often frustrated Qatar by forcing them to go wide.
However, Qatar came close to score on several occasions but the Indian defenders and particularly Gurpreet Singh Sandhu’s heroics made sure that India would ultimately walk away with a point from the tough away fixture.
