Full-time and it is India 1-1 Singapore. This was a match that Singapore mostly dominated but India came up with a late goal to earn a crucial point. 

Two crucial blocks by Anwar Ali in the last 5 minutes and he is the only reason that India have not conceded again. Brilliant show from the defender.

India have scored late in this match and it is 1-1! Two horrible errors by Singapore and Rahim Ali had the easiest task of just guiding the ball into the net. Sensational scenes!

It has been all Singapore in the second half of this match and once again, they had the chance to double their lead. However, another wayward header and India have been lucky to trail by just one goal in this encounter.

Chhangte and Chhetri go off, Udanta Singh and Rahim Ali replace them as Khalid Jamil make the final changes for India.

Gurpreet Singh Sandhu keep India in the hunt with two stunning saves. It looked like Singapore were seconds away from taking a 2-0 lead as the striker was presented with a brilliant one-on-one chance. But Gurpreet made himself big to block the first shot and then pulled off a one-handed save to keep the score 0-1.

Macarton and Nikhil Prabhu are replaced by Deepak Tangri and Sahal Abdul Samad.

Meanwhile, India made one change after Jhingan's red card - Valpuia replaces Farukh.

A momentary lapse from the Singapore defence as the goalkeeper did not collect a seemingly harmless cross properly. However, there was no Indian player around to take advantage and this chance is also wasted.

Red card for Sandesh Jhingan! Huge loss for India. A second yellow for the experienced defender after a needless tackle on Ikhsan and this is highly irresponsible from him.

The second half is underway and India will need a good start after going 0-1 down deep into the first half.

It is half-time and India trail 0-1 against Singapore. A big error at the end of first half and this is going to be tough for Gurpreet Singh Sandhu and Co.

Singapore score and India are 0-1 behind. Almost the last kick of the first half and Anuar has scored for Singapore. A defensive lapse from Uvais and Anuar just had Gurpreet to beat. A calm finish from the striker and this is disastrous for India.

What a clearance from Uvais! Singapore came up with a stunning through-ball and it looked like they will just have Gurpreet to beat in front of the goal. However, Uvais made a stunning amount of ground and pulled off the tackle in time.

A chance each for both sides and co-incidentally, both came from corners. For Singapore, the weak header was collected by India goalkeeper Gurpreet Singh Sandhu. A minute later, India had a chance but a needless foul put an end to it.

Singapore are relentless in their attack but India have no shown any signs of breaking down yet. The latest block came from Anwar Ali who was at the right place at the right time to make sure that the clearance was completed without any fuss.

The first chance for India to score in this match but the finishing was just not there. A free-kick by Liston Colaco found Rahul Bheke in front of the goal. However, the ball bounced off his head and went out of play.

A stunning goal-kick from Singapore almost caught India napping. Rahul Bheke was not aware of the danger and the Singapore attacker almost found an opening before the ball was collected by Gurpreet.

Singapore have the majority of attacks in this game but India's defensive performance deserves a lot of applause. They have held their position brilliantly and have been mostly successful in dealing with all the dangerous crosses into the box.

An early attack for India as Chhangte made a stunning run down the wings but his cross was collected comfortably by the Singapore goalkeeper.

The first half is underway. Crucial match for India as they have just one point from 2 matches. A win against Singapore will put them in a good position.

Izwan Mahbud; Ryhan Stewart, Hariss Harun, Safuwan Baharuddin, Glenn Kweh; Song Ui-Young, Kyoga Nakamura, Shah Shahiran; Harhys Stewart, Ikshan Fandi, Shawal Anuar
