Football News: Doungel backs India to play 1-1 draw with Afghanistan

Igor Stimac’s India played yet another draw in the 2022 World Cup qualifiers. India played a 1-1 draw with Afghanistan away from home in a crucial FIFA World Cup qualifier. Zelfy Narzary backed the home side after opening the scoreline at the end of the first half. The smell of India’s defeat was near - but substitute Seminlen Doungel, who plays for FC Goa in the Indian Super League, scored late and backed his team to collect at least one point. After four matches in Group E, fourth-placed India have collected three points six short than second-placed Oman, who will welcome India on Tuesday.
