Half-time!

The referee blows for the break in Hisor. Iran have dominated large spells with sustained pressure, especially through Omid Nor Afkan and Mehran Ahmadi, forcing India onto the back foot. Still, the Blue Tigers have held firm, thanks to key interventions from Sandesh Jhingan and Gurpreet Singh Sandhu. India’s best moment came via Irfan Yadwad, but he was closed down before pulling the trigger.

Score at Half-time: India 0–0 Iran
