FIFA World Cup leg fixture
India held Nepal in a goalless draw in the second leg fixture of the
2018 FIFA World Cup and 2019 Asian Cup Qualifiers at the Dasharath
Stadium in Kathmandu today. With today's draw following the 2-nil loss
on March 12 at the hands of India, Nepal have been relegated from the
World Cup Qualifiers. India have entered the second round of the
qualifiers. Nepal have won only twice in their 17 previous meetings.
India have won 12 times while three matches ended in draws. In front of
the home crowd, the hosts enjoyed domination throughout the match. They,
however, failed to score and keep Nepal's hope alive.
