Come one and all to the opening encounter for the Indian national team in the 19th Asian Games in Hamzoo. It's been nine years since a football team kicked off in this celebrated competition. The first champions, the first ever gold scorers, the first ever to taste gold at the Asian Games. This is the legacy of Indian football, but it doesn't end there. It surely doesn't end there. Yeah, he'll get again with his left foot. Oh, that was close. It's on the right flank as of now. The two crosses it in. It's a header of three. Change. He takes it from this. Goodness me was he close. The man is on a mission. You want him to back himself in positions like this and that is exactly what he did. He read the miss pass, got possession and then he had and he was not far positive signs for India. Meanwhile, Bait Feeat and a short throw. Tau which is booted off by Gourmet and then Sunday's Hingun. Sixes and sevens, but in the end, he's going to be in the middle of the game. But in the end, a sigh of relief for the Indian national team. Atish, we need to fix our left. We need to fix our left and do it quickly because the crosses and the quality of balls that are coming in from our left is just too dangerous. Towards the far post, and the Hingun rises. China have something to cherish. The host, Dandlead and Estiani Gao with the finish. India did not react well to this and the first person, Fender, was it? There's another chance for China with that B penalty and yes, it will be. It's trouble for India and it is a yellow card for Gourmet Singh. The touch from Ayush Teh Tvi. Putting the Indian team in all sorts of trouble. The experience of Dandleong shakes it towards one side and Gourmet. Gourmet saves. Gourmet saves. He has sung his own redemption song. Gave away the penalty but ensured the ball didn't hit the back of the net. He fells the captain. Change is you. It was his step up to take that penalty for China. What a moment this could be. Not only in this game, but in the overall context of the tournament. Possession with India as I use Dave Chaitri tries to play to Rahim Ali for to itlessly. It falls for Rahim Ali. Couldn't keep it down. Rahul Kp has something to run for and he can run for it. Rahul Kp. The blue Tigers roar in the Lions den. That's a finish for the ages. A ball chipped through. Run Rahul, run. That's what he does. And he rifles it past the goalkeeper. What a finish that is. Chinese are trying to run rings around the Indian defence. And they finally found some space to take it to Sean. That finds the ball. Bottom corner with a plomb. One similarity between the two goals is that HBF reacted late to both of them. While we conceded the first corner corner, there were four defenders around. The reaction was not good enough. We just did not close down. David June fast enough quickly enough. The Indian defenders should have not let that shortcoming. Or even if they did let the shortcoming, the pressure on David June should have been higher. More intense. Amar Jitriya loses it. Just to shoot yet again. Good mid-sage. Not the second time, but is it offside or not? Doesn't seem like it. Completely exposed, good mid-sake. And when it fell to Tau, he was going to make no mistakes. The ball's coming once again. It's a try from so far out. And you could see a few appeals for offside. Adisha from the Indian players. Chang Long Tau, of course, did not waste any time. Pounced on that like a goal coacher does and should do. And finished it for China. They are now two goals ahead. The score stands at three-one in favour of China. Such an important goal for them. A corner that will meet managers to punch speculatively. There is problems. Is it clear to how far the San Dei's jingren ever present in that defence? loses the ball. How far now? Or problems galore? Problems galore for India. And Chang Long Tau. adds much more salt to those Indian wounds. Look at this. Two players winning the ball for San Dei jingren. Just could not get enough space to clear it. And after that, the balls come across the face of goal. And Chang Long Tau gets his second goal of the night. And that is for me what has really made the difference between these two teams. These fresh legs that have come off the bench for China. Are just too fast. Are just too strong at the moment. And it's down on a hatrick. Denied. Gal. The captain's armband is the one who scored the first goal. He plays it to how fun. On the right it's how fun. China taking India to the cleaners. Leaving no stone unturned. Somewhat similar to the way Rahul KP scored. A pass down the right. An angle that's difficult to find. But how fun found it with a plomb. A loss of experience. More coES One year till the end of that halo!
