Team India eye another win in 2019 AFC Asian Cup as they take on The UAE
Kick-off : 8:00 PM (Local)
Venue : Zayed Sports City Stadium, Abu Dhabi
Team India after their comprehensive win over The Southeast Asians will look to secure passage to the next round. India scored four goals against Thailand while conceding one.
It will be a difficult task though against The West Asian country, UAE. India will have to absorb the pressure and play to their true potential.
If everything goes to plan then who knows we might be in for an absolute treat. Anyways football fans in India should enjoy the feel of the AFC Asian Cup.
On the other hand, The UAE drew 1-1 with Bahrain in their first game and they themselves will now be looking to open up a bit.
India though should provide stiff challenge to them. But The UAE knows that they are playing at home and it should be an advantage.
The UAE will look to give their best and hope for the best.
The UAE have a good record against India and India will be hoping for improvement.
