Football: India look to continue robust record against Bangladesh

Shillong, Mar 23 (UNI) India and Bangladesh will face off for the 29th time in international football on March 25.
The subcontinental rivalry, perhaps the biggest in the region, has been dominated by the Blue Tigers, who have won 14 contests — including the first one at the 1978 Asian Games — lost just four, and 10 have ended in draws.
The last decade or so has seen plenty of dramatic moments whenever the neighbours have clashed – be it Adil Khan's 88th-minute header that erupted the Vivekananda Yuba Bharati Krirangan in 2019, or Sunil Chhetri's 95th-minute free-kick in the 2013 SAFF Championship.
