India vs Afghanistan: The pressure is on for India’s national football team as they face Afghanistan in their crucial final CAFA Nations Cup 2025 group match. Under Khalid Jamil’s leadership, the Blue Tigers are in a must-win situation to secure a spot in the third-place playoff on September 8. While a final berth remains technically possible, it would require India to win while Iran loses to Tajikistan – a highly unlikely scenario.

Jamil’s tenure started brilliantly with India breaking their 17-year drought against Tajikistan, sparking hopes of a new era. However, reality hit hard when Iran delivered a comprehensive 3-0 thrashing that brought the team back down to earth. Despite the heavy defeat, India’s defensive resilience showed glimpses of promise.
Now, facing Afghanistan, the equation is simple for the Blue Tigers – win or go home. With everything on the line, Jamil’s men know that only three points will keep their tournament dreams alive and provide some redemption after the Iran setback.
