He steps up... TOP RIGHT CORNER NO PROBLEMSIndia 1-0 Oman in the shootout20:03 (IST) 8 Sep 2025India vs Oman Live Score, CAFA Nations Cup 2025 Playoff Updates: Into the penalties we go...India kept possession for much of the dying minutes of extra time but they could hardly make a clear cut goalscoring chance. There was seemingly one, though. Manvir was played clear as day on goal with just the goalkeeper to beat. He ends up smashing straight into the Oman custodian and the ball goes out. Manvir looks to the linesman who raises the flag to say he was offside, thus saving him from embarassment.19:59 (IST) 8 Sep 2025India vs Oman Live Score, CAFA Nations Cup 2025 Playoff Updates: One more change for India116th min: And it is only to make sure India have a tall body inside the box that can head the ball in from crosses. Jeakson Singh comes on for Danish Farooq.19:56 (IST) 8 Sep 2025India vs Oman Live Score, CAFA Nations Cup 2025 Playoff Updates: India 1-1 Oman113th min: "KEEP THE BALL! KEEP THE BALL!" shouts Gurpreet once India win possession in midfield and that is what they do instead of blindly charging forward. Unlike what was the case in the first half of extra time, it has been much more even this time around with Oman managing to stay in the Indian final third for longer periods.19:53 (IST) 8 Sep 2025India vs Oman Live Score, CAFA Nations Cup 2025 Playoff Updates: Oman has more of the ball...109th min: Or at least that has been the case early on. India need to find a way to score. Chhangte charges forward on the right hand flank looking to force exactly that, his cross, though, is straight into the hands of the goalkeeper.19:48 (IST) 8 Sep 2025India vs Oman Live Score, CAFA Nations Cup 2025 Playoff Updates: First half of extra time is done! India 1-1 OmanThe half ends with Bheke's long throw in being headed out. Jithin seems to have grabbed the ball back in the final third but the referee says that he committed a foul there. That is the end of that half, Queiroz is quite animated at the touchline at the moment.19:43 (IST) 8 Sep 2025India vs Oman Live Score, CAFA Nations Cup 2025 Playoff Updates: India hogging possession now100th min: All right, the stream is back on and what we are seeing is something no Indian fan would've ever imagined before the game today. Oman are sat tightly inside their own third, India stroking the ball around in front of them, trying to find a way through.19:40 (IST) 8 Sep 2025India vs Oman Live Score, CAFA Nations Cup 2025 Playoff Updates: RED CARD FOR OMAN!Well due to the broadcast blackout we have no idea for now just how it is that this has happened and who has been shown the dreaded card. But the bottom line is, Oman are down to 10 men! This is dream territory for India!19:38 (IST) 8 Sep 2025India vs Oman Live Score, CAFA Nations Cup 2025 Playoff Updates: First half of extra time is underway!Well, the stream has completely blacked out now. Pretty much every way of watching this game is gone for now but we will keep bringing you the action as much as possible.19:26 (IST) 8 Sep 2025India vs Oman Live Score, CAFA Nations Cup 2025 Playoff Updates: FULL TIME! India 1-1 Oman, into extra time we go!Al Aghbari's cross is cleared by Anwar, Oman still keep the ball, Al Kaabi puts in another cross from the right straight into Sandhu's hands.And that is the last act of regular time. We will have extra time, although any FIFA points from this game will be for a draw.19:24 (IST) 8 Sep 2025India vs Oman Live Score, CAFA Nations Cup 2025 Playoff Updates: Five minutes added on...90th min: Oman showing some urgency in attack, Al Aghbari's cross from the right is punched away by Sandhu. It comes back though and Sandhu sees the ball floating harmlessly over the bar. Meanwhile, it looks like there have been a few words exchanged on the touchline between Jamil and Queiroz!19:20 (IST) 8 Sep 2025India vs Oman Live Score, CAFA Nations Cup 2025 Playoff Updates: India causing problems now...88th min: Oman look a little shell-shocked here. Remember, if this match ends level, we go into extra-time and then penalties. Long throw in, Oman just can't deal with it but they clear it somehow. Jithin collects the ball and puts in a cross which is hopelessly heavy.19:10 (IST) 8 Sep 2025India vs Oman Live Score, CAFA Nations Cup 2025 Playoff Updates: GOAL! UDANTA SINGH LEVELS IT UP! India 1-1 Oman!81 mins: Udanta Singh brought on just a minute ago and he makes the difference! Long throw in from the right, Bheke takes it with Uvais off the field. The ball is flicked back inside the box, Udanta heads it in. Unbelievable stuff here. Gremlins have taken over the FanCode stream and Udanta had been brought on about a minute back when the stream had given up entirely.19:08 (IST) 8 Sep 2025India vs Oman Live Score, CAFA Nations Cup 2025 Playoff Updates: India attack...71st min: Manvir passes the ball to Irfan and then charges forward, expecting the latter to give it back to him. But Irfan just stands there and is dispossessed. He hunts the ball back though, and India keep the ball in Oman's half, it ends with Chhangte's cross being cleared off by Al Rushaidi.19:03 (IST) 8 Sep 2025India vs Oman Live Score, CAFA Nations Cup 2025 Playoff Updates: More pressure from Oman68th min: Well India completely in the backfoot. Al Ghassani charges down the left, Hmingthanmawia slides in to stop him. Al Ghassani stays down and the referee finally calls for a break in play half a minute later for him to get some attention.18:57 (IST) 8 Sep 2025India vs Oman Live Score, CAFA Nations Cup 2025 Playoff Updates: Changes for India63rd min: Khalid Jamil has now switched to a 4-4-2. Roshan Singh replaces Mohammed Uvais, and Manvir Singh is on for Mahesh Singh.18:53 (IST) 8 Sep 2025India vs Oman Live Score, CAFA Nations Cup 2025 Playoff Updates: GOAL! India 0-1 Oman!56th min: Well Queiroz's substitutions have shredded India to pieces here. India had a couple of chances to clear the ball, they didn't take it and Al Kaabi runs in behind the Indian defence on the left, cuts back to Al Yahmadi at the edge of the box. He runs into that pocket of open space and smashes it in first time.18:48 (IST) 8 Sep 2025India vs Oman Live Score, CAFA Nations Cup 2025 Playoff Updates: Chances at both ends!53rd min: An Uvais long throw in causes mayhem in the Oman box once again, Anwar heads it towards goal but this time there is no power. A min later, Al Kaabi puts in a dangerous cross from the left towards Al Ghassani at the near post. His jump was timed perfectly, Sandhu is beaten and the ball goes just wide of the target.18:42 (IST) 8 Sep 2025India vs Oman Live Score, CAFA Nations Cup 2025 Playoff Updates: Some early pressure from India47th min: India manage to pin Oman inside their box, it finally pops out and Farooq finally ends all that pressure by booting the ball upfield aimlessly into the box. Whether he was actually going for goal from midfield or if he was trying ton find someone inside the empty box, no one will ever know.18:34 (IST) 8 Sep 2025India vs Oman Live Score, CAFA Nations Cup 2025 Playoff Updates: 4 HALF-TIME SUBS FOR OMAN!Not something you see everyday in football. Queiroz has lined up an army of changes before the start of the second half. Khalid Jamil has also made a change, Jithin brought in for Vikram! Surprises from both sides then.Here are the Omani subs: Al Rawahi replaced by Al Yahmadi, Al Saadi on for Al Habshi, Al Ghassani on for Al Sabhi and Al Mushaifri, who was brilliant in the first half, comes off for Al Yahyaei.18:26 (IST) 8 Sep 2025India vs Oman Live Score, CAFA Nations Cup 2025 Playoff Updates: HALF TIME! India 0-0 OmanWell, Oman are placed 54 places above India on the FIFA rankings and so it is a compliment to the latter that the score is 0-0 at half-time. Moreover, India have looked quite dangerous as well. But well, that miss from Yadvad pretty much sums up the one gaping flaw in Indian football that can at times undo every other good thing that a side does on a day. An unbelievable miss, for any professional football player at any level.It remains to be seen if India can keep up these levels in the second half. Oman have threatened quite a lot. The fact that Sandhu, Anwar and Bheke have had their lapses in communication would be something that India would want to be wary of as the game goes on and their feet start getting heavier.18:21 (IST) 8 Sep 2025India vs Oman Live Score, CAFA Nations Cup 2025 Playoff Updates: HOW IN THE WORLD HAS IRFAN MISSED THAT?!!45th + 2 min: Chhangte runs in behind the Omani defence on the left, cuts back brilliantly. Irfan Yadwad is there in the box, the ball comes kindly to his feet, he has no pressure at all from any opposition defender, the goalkeeper is wrong-footed. And Yadwad fluffs his tap-in. That is an unbelievable error there from a striker. Absolutely inexcusable.18:18 (IST) 8 Sep 2025India vs Oman Live Score, CAFA Nations Cup 2025 Playoff Updates: Tempers fraying now...43rd min: Oman's Fawaz goes tumbling around the centreline, claiming a foul from Mahesh. And well, the referee gives Oman a free kick. There was absolutely nothing from the Indian there. The Indians are not really happy here.18:12 (IST) 8 Sep 2025India vs Oman Live Score, CAFA Nations Cup 2025 Playoff Updates: Gurpreet charges out!40th min: A fantastic through ball curved towards the Omani striker charging down the middle but Gurpreet nails his starting position this time. He kicks it away with ease. India had a bit of a chance a couple of minutes before that, with Uvais sending in a long through ball to Mahesh on the left flank. His cross was hit well over the box, in which there was no Indian anyhow, Chhangte chases it and curls another cross into the box, Vikram glances it wide.18:04 (IST) 8 Sep 2025India vs Oman Live Score, CAFA Nations Cup 2025 Playoff Updates: Half an hour gone, time for a drinks breakAll right, India's centre-back pairing of Bheke and Anwar and goalkeeper Sandhu have had a few slip ups in communucation towards the end of that first half hour which Jamil would be looking to nip in the bud. For they have been quite solid otherwise, which is the reason why Oman have never really had a big clear-cut chance to score thus far. All of the Indian forwards, including striker Uvais, are doing brilliantly with regards to tracking back as well, which has also helped.18:01 (IST) 8 Sep 2025India vs Oman Live Score, CAFA Nations Cup 2025 Playoff Updates: DANGER FOR INDIA!27 mins: Communication problems between the two centre-backs and the goalkeeper almost cost India a couple of goals there. First the ball is popped up from the middle and it is falling over the shoulder of Al Mushaifri, Sandhu comes out late to clear it but it only falls ot Al Sabhi who takes a long range shot. It is off target.Then comes the bigger danger 2 mins later. Ball played behind India, this time Al Rawahi breezes past Bheke and Anwar, the centre back pairing in Jhingan's absence, Sandhu wasn't sure whether to charge forward or not. He does neither really and Al Rawahi taps it past him. The ball tricks past the far post, much to Sandhu's relief.17:54 (IST) 8 Sep 2025India vs Oman Live Score, CAFA Nations Cup 2025 Playoff Updates: India 0-0 Oman22nd min: Another big throw in from the left by Uvais and more problems inside the Omani box. Al-Mukhaini charges off his line, flays his hand at the ball and then goes down, claiming a foul. The ref blows his whistle straightaway. The softest of touches on the Oman goalkeeper really, he went down theatrically and it seems that was enought to convince the referee. In fact, it looked like it should've gone the other way around, Al-Mukhaini had absolutely clattered into Vikram while going for ball and there was every reason to call for a penalty there.Nevertheless, this has been a very good start from India.17:47 (IST) 8 Sep 2025India vs Oman Live Score, CAFA Nations Cup 2025 Playoff Updates: BIG CHANCE FOR INDIA!16th min: Uvais with a long throw in from the left, sent right into the box and causes all kinds of trouble. It bounces for Anwar Ali to head goalwards, he does that and Oman goalkeeper Ibrahim Al-Mukhaini has to pull off a big save. It was quite close to him so he didn't have to move much but that was headed towards him by Anwar with some venom.17:44 (IST) 8 Sep 2025India vs Oman Live Score, CAFA Nations Cup 2025 Playoff Updates: 10 mins gone, India 0-0 OmanOman have more of the possession, which is no surprise. Thus far, though, they haven't been able to do much with the ball. The Indians have been pressing them tight in their own third for the oast two minutes and finally, a long ball is played for Al Rawahi to chase. It is too heavy and it goes out for a goalkick.17:38 (IST) 8 Sep 2025India vs Oman Live Score, CAFA Nations Cup 2025 Playoff Updates: All Oman in first five mins5 mins: Abdulrahaman Al-Mushaifri causes some early problems for India. He goes on a solo run down the left and cuts back, Gurpreet picks the ball up to defuse the danger. He runs again around the four-minute mark, Danish Farooq brings him down with a rather clumsy tackle.17:32 (IST) 8 Sep 2025India vs Oman Live Score, CAFA Nations Cup 2025 Playoff Updates: KICK OFF!All right then, here we go! The stadium is absolutely empty - with the home side Tajikistan gone there is very little local interest for this tournament now. But a result for India will infuse some much-needed positivity in these uncertain times for the sport in the country.17:28 (IST) 8 Sep 2025India vs Oman Live Score, CAFA Nations Cup 2025 Playoff Updates: Time for the national anthemsFirst comes the Indian national anthem, then Oman's. Carlos Queiroz is Oman's head coach, remember. He is there at the touchline and shakes hands with the Indian coaching staff after the anthems are done.17:22 (IST) 8 Sep 2025India vs Oman Live Score, CAFA Nations Cup 2025 Playoff Updates: The players lining up in the tunnel...And so this is a perfect opportunity for us to recap how this tournament has gone thus far for India. India started off with a match against the hosts Tajikistan, with the stadium absolutely heaving with support for the home side. Somehow, centre backs Sandesh Jhingan and Anwar Ali scored early and India managed to win that match 2-1. Then came their second game against the might of 20th-ranked Iran. India held them off well for much of the game before an ill-fated tweak in formation from Jamil early in the second half led to Iran scoring the first goal. India couldn't really do much when Iran brought out their big guns in Mehdi Taremi and Alireza Jahanbakhsh and lost 3-0. India then faced the much lower-ranked Afghanistan and failed to score a goal, with the match ending in a goalless draw.17:03 (IST) 8 Sep 2025India vs Oman Playoff Live Score, CAFA Nations Cup 2025: Some attacking changes from Khalid Jamil...The hard-working but slightly defensive-minded Ashique Kuruniyan has been replaced by the more attacking Lallianzuala Chhangte. Vikram Pratap Singh has been brought on in place of Jithin, with the former being the one who looks to score more often than the latter. Big man Danish Farooq has been brought on for Suresh Singh Wangjam, surely Jamil has made that change to combat Oman's prowess in set pieces.16:54 (IST) 8 Sep 2025India vs Oman Playoff Live Score, CAFA Nations Cup 2025: LINEUPSIndia XI (4-2-3-1): Gurpreet (GK); Valpuia, Bheke, Anwar, Uvais; Danish, Nikhil; Chhangte, Mahesh, Vikram; YadwadOman XI (4-5-1): Mukhaini (GK); Mabrook, Al Khamisi, Al Rushaidi, Busaidi; Al Rawahi, Al Mashaiki, Al Mushaifri, Fawaz, Al Kaabi; Al Sabhi
