Please don't say we lost coz we don't have OCI/PIO, it was about poor performance, echoing the Thailand game. Manolo's gamble hasn't paid off. Sunil's return hasn't paid off either.

Earlier in the day, Manolo Marquez kept out veteran striker Sunil Chhetri from the starting XI. A sea of red packed the stands at the newly built Kai Tak Stadium but despite the strong home support, India did pretty well to create a few chances in the first half, even though Hong Kong enjoyed more possession. STORY CONTINUES BELOW THIS AD But, as has been the trend with them in recent times, the lack of finishing has again let the Blue Tigers down in the first 45 minutes. Among the opportunities that came their way before the half time break, the Indians came closest in the 35th minute but Ashique Kuruniyan shot the ball wide from a close range after Liston Colaco ran down the left to provide him a nice cross. Meanwhile, after having received medical attention after getting injured, Colaco unleashed a powerful long-range shot but it went straight into the keeper's gloves. Hong Kong also grew in confidence as the game approached the half time. The home team could have taken the lead from a free-kick had it not been for a timely clearance by Asish Rai from goal-mouth after custodian Vishal Kaith was beaten. Both India and Hong Kong have had their moments but neither side could convert in a tightly contested first half of this crucial 2027 AFC Asian Cup Qualifier. STORY CONTINUES BELOW THIS AD Kuruniyan, who has otherwise performed his job admirably on the flanks, looked to have got another chance to break the deadlock some minutes into the second half, but could not. Soon after, coach Marquez brought on India's all-time highest goal-scorer Chhetri alongside Naorem Singh in place of Kuruniyan and Brandon Fernandes. India created chances in the second half too, including in the 81st minute when Lallianzuala Chhangte found Chhetri with a brilliant cutback inside the Hong Kong box, but the veteran striker was not able to connect it well. The result is a setback for India who came into the game after a goal-less draw against Bangladesh in their first Asian Cup qualifying match, at home in March. India have one point from two games and are last in the group, and only one team from the pool of four will qualify for the final. India will now need to win their remaining four matches, but given their inability to score, it looks improbable. STORY CONTINUES BELOW THIS AD (With agency inputs)

The result, coming on the back of a 3-0 friendly drubbing by Thailand, has sparked widespread frustration, with Jindal's social media post amplifying the growing discontent among JSW scion didn't mince words in his criticism, demanding sweeping changes in Indian football's leadership and structure. Jindal's reaction reflected the mood of many Indian supporters who have watched the team consistently fall short in key international fixtures despite promises of is completely unacceptable @IndianFootball - just not good enough under any circumstances - deep introspection needed by the AIFF - this is not what all of us lovers and backers of Indian football have spent our hard earned money and effort to witness - get a manager and a— Parth Jindal (@ParthJindal11) June 10, 2025"This is completely unacceptable @IndianFootball - just not good enough under any circumstances - deep introspection needed by the AIFF - this is not what all of us lovers and backers of Indian football have spent our hard earned money and effort to witness - get a manager and a system that works - it's high time - there is too much effort to see a result like this," Jindal wrote in his Against Hong Kong, India were undone by a moment of defensive recklessness in injury time.

Ashique Kuruniyan squandered a golden opportunity in the first half after being played through by Liston Colaco. But as has often been the case in recent outings, India lacked the clinical edge required to make their dominance coach Igor Marquez's decision to start without Sunil Chhetri — who had returned from retirement to aid a faltering attack — also raised eyebrows. His replacement, Lallianzuala Chhangte, struggled to make an impact, while the midfield looked disconnected and uninspired defeat deepens the crisis surrounding the national team, not just in terms of results but also tactical clarity and team morale. With qualification hopes for the Asian Cup now hanging by a thread, serious questions are being asked of the coaching staff and the AIFF's direction.

'Completely Unacceptable...Just Not Good Enough': Parth Jindal Lambasts Indian Football Team
Last Updated: Indian football team lost 0-1 to Hong Kong in a crucial 2027 AFC Asian Cup Qualifier, jeopardizing their chances and likely dropping to 133 in FIFA rankings. Indian football's struggles continued as the senior men's team, lacking determination, finishing, and the will to fight, suffered a disappointing 0-1 defeat to lower-ranked Hong Kong in a crucial 2027 AFC Asian Cup Qualifier match on Tuesday. Hosts Hong Kong secured victory with an injury-time goal by Stefan Pereira in the 94th minute penalty, in what was a slap in the face to the atrocious Indian team. This defeat jeopardised India's chances of qualifying for the next Asian Cup in Saudi Arabia, and the team is likely to drop to 133 in the FIFA rankings, while Hong Kong will gain points and move up in the standings. India's abhorrent showing in Hong Kong tonight angered many a fans alike, including Parth Jindal, who expressed his resentment and disappointment on X. This is completely unacceptable @IndianFootball – just not good enough under any circumstances – deep introspection needed by the AIFF – this is not what all of us lovers and backers of Indian football have spent our hard earned money and effort to witness – get a manager and a…— Parth Jindal (@ParthJindal11) June 10, 2025 'This is completely unacceptable @IndianFootball – just not good enough under any circumstances – deep introspection needed by the AIFF – this is not what all of us lovers and backers of Indian football have spent our hard earned money and effort to witness – get a manager and a system that works – it's high time – there is too much effort to see a result like this," Jindal wrote in his post. The team's struggles have been so significant that head coach Manolo Marquez had to persuade Sunil Chhetri to come out of retirement, a year after he had decided to step away from international football. Despite Chhetri's return, the team remains stuck in its recent downward spiral. Manolo's future with the national team is also uncertain. In addition to his role as the head coach of the national team, he continues to hold his position at ISL side FC Goa. With a dismal record of one win in their last 12 matches, the Indian football team continues to show no sign of improvement, and unsurprisingly, one could bet their money on not expecting much anytime in the near future.

Parth Jindal demands deep introspection after India's poor show vs Hong Kong: 'Not good enough under any circumstances'
Team India faced backlash after their another underwhelming performance in a crucial match as they lost 0-1 to Hong Kong in the 2027 Asian Cup Qualifier. The Blue Tigers failed to break the deadlock and conceded an injury-time goal to lose the match. It was another match where the Indian forwards were not clinical enough to convert the chances into goals, which led to another embarrassment. India did pretty well to create a few chances in the first half despite Hong Kong enjoying more possession, but they failed to get the job done in the final third to score a goal. Indian Super League club Bengaluru FC owner Parth Jindal couldn't control his emotions after the Indian team's sub-par performance and lashed out at AIFF, demanding deep introspection for the repeated failures. "This is completely unacceptable @IndianFootball - just not good enough under any circumstances - deep introspection needed by the AIFF - this is not what all of us lovers and backers of Indian football have spent our hard earned money and effort to witness - get a manager and a system that works - it's high time - there is too much effort to see a result like this," Jindal wrote on X. Meanwhile, it was goalkeeper Vishal Kaith's failed attempt to palm the ball to after after coming out of the goalline, as he ended up hitting Michael Udebuluzor. The referee straightaway awarded Hong Kong a penalty in the injury time. Stefan Pereira (90 + 4) stepped up to take the spot kick and shot the ball to the right of Kaith, who was also shown a yellow card for his injury-time foul and Hong Kong sealed the game 1-0. Earlier, India coach Manolo Marquez kept out veteran striker Sunil Chhetri from the starting XI but it didn't help the visitors much as they were once lacked the finishing touch to score a goal in the first half. Both India and Hong Kong have had their moments but neither side could convert in a tightly contested first half of this crucial 2027 AFC Asian Cup Qualifier. India continued to generate opportunities in the second half, notably in the 81st minute when Lallianzuala Chhangte delivered a brilliant cutback to Chhetri inside the Hong Kong box. However, the veteran striker couldn't connect cleanly, missing a key chance. This outcome marks a setback for India, especially after their goalless draw against Bangladesh in their opening Asian Cup qualifying match back in March.
