India lost another game in the 2027 AFC Asian Cup Qualifier, this time in a calamitous 0-1 loss to hosts Hong Kong on Tuesday.

After Indian goalkeeper Vishal Kaith stepped out of the goalline and attempted to palm the ball to safety but instead struck Michael Udebuluzor, the referee gave Hong Kong the penalty.

For his injury-time foul, Kaith was also issued a yellow card, while Pereira (90+4) advanced to execute the spot kick and blasted the ball to Kaith's right.
