India's centre back, Anwar Ali, was named the Player of the Match. The Blue Tigers finish Group B with four points from three games, and now await the result of the match between IR Iran and Tajikistan, to know their fate in the tournament. Already ruled out of finishing top of the group, India could finish second, which will ensure their progression to the third-place match on September 8, if Tajikistan do not win against Iran, as per an All India Football Federation (AIFF).
