Summary
India U-23 will take on Brunei U-23 in their final AFC U23 Asian Cup Qualifiers Group H match on September 9, 2025, at 3:15 pm GMT at the Suheim bin Hamad Stadium, Doha. After a spirited display against Qatar and a victory over Bahrain, the Blue Colts remain in contention for their first-ever AFC U23 Asian Cup qualification. A big win is crucial, as goal difference may decide whether they progress as group winners or one of the best second-placed teams. Brunei, already eliminated after heavy defeats, will aim to restore pride.
Form Guide
India U-23 have shown grit and improvement. They began with a hard-fought win over Bahrain, followed by a spirited but narrow loss to hosts Qatar, where they were undone by controversial refereeing. With three points from two games, they remain in the hunt for qualification.
Brunei U-23, on the other hand, endured a disastrous campaign. They conceded 13 goals against Qatar and 10 against Bahrain, leaving them at the bottom of the group with no points. India will look to exploit Brunei’s defensive weaknesses to secure a commanding win.

Match Preview
This fixture is a must-win for India U-23, who not only need three points but also a large goal margin to boost their qualification chances. Head coach Naushad Moosa has urged focus and intensity, warning against complacency despite Brunei’s poor form. With Brunei conceding 23 goals in two matches, India will be expected to dominate possession and attack relentlessly.
