Football
India held FIFA World Cup side Panama, ranked No.44, to a 1-1 draw in Bengaluru on September 25, 2026, in a match that saw Ryan Williams give the Blue Tigers a first-half lead.
Omar Valencia equalised after the break.
India created chances to win and withstood late pressure, and the result offers Khalid Jamil’s side encouragement ahead of tougher friendlies against Brazil and Uruguay in October.
