India vs Australia Live Streaming, AFC Asian Cup 2023: When and where to watch | Football News
India vs Australia Live Streaming, AFC Asian Cup 2023: India are keeping their expectations grounded judging from whatever head coach Igor Stimac and captain Sunil Chhetri have said so far as they face tournament favourites Australia in their first match of the 2023 AFC Asian Cup. The tournament, which was originally scheduled to be held in China last year before being moved out of the country due to Covid-19 rules, started on Friday with hosts Qatar beating Lebanon 3-0.
Australia, who had reached the round of 16 of the 2022 World Cup where they lost to Lionel Messi’s Argentina, are ranked 25th in the FIFA standings while India are 102nd. Naturally, chances of getting any kind of favourable results are slim at best for the Blue Tigers but that also means that they have practically nothing to lose and can defend in numbers if required. India’s hopes of making it to the round of 16 in the continental showpiece depends on the outcome of the match against Syria on January 23 as Australia and Uzbekistan (January 18) are way ahead of them in terms of quality.
A win against Syria can put India in the third place in the group, offering a chance for a knock-out round berth. The top two teams from each group, along with four best third-placed sides from across six groups, progress to the knockout round of 16.
A knockout round berth will be a huge achievement for India, who are making their fifth appearance in the Asian Cup, after coming close in the last edition in 2019, and especially for Chhetri, who will be playing for the last time in the prestigious tournament. The 39-year-old talisman will be playing in his third Asian Cup, after his 2011 and 2019 campaigns, having scored four goals in six matches, the most by an Indian.
