Blue Colts will eye the qualification to the showpiece event.
The qualification stage is set for the Indian U20 Men’s National Football Team as they already edged past their first opponents, the Syria U20 side and now a new test awaits for the Mahesh Gawali’s squad.
Indian U20 team are ready to lock horns against the home side, Uzbekistan U20 National Team, in their second match of the AFC U20 Asian Cup Qualifiers on Thursday, 3rd September, 2026, from 19:30 IST at the Do’stik Stadium, Tashkent, Uzbekistan.
A new chapter in India’s bid to return to the Asian stage after a long time, as they are featured in the AFC U-20 Asian Cup 2027 qualification, and now it is very clear that the Blue Colts will eye a qualification spot after winning the first game.
Mahesh Gawali’s 23-man squad will be eager to make a strong start as India missed out on the spot narrowly in the previous edition of the competition, as the boys look to put themselves in a good position in Group B.
On the other hand, the Uzbekistan U20 side looks to play their natural display as they have played against the Bangladesh U20 side when they thrashed the Bengal Tigers in their first meeting in the Qualifiers, and right now the Central Asian side sits atop the points table just above India U20.

On paper, it looks like a stern test for the Blue Colts when they will contest against the hosts Uzbekistan U20 side in the qualifiers after they have defeated Syria 1-0, relying on Shami’s goal in the 86th minute of the match. With that win over Syria, the Blue Colts are now all geared up for their second game, which will be the fixture to lead the Indian side to qualification if they manage to win the match.
The Blue Colts under head coach Gawali will enter the game with immense confidence after a strong preparation period they have had and also the opening victory in the competition. They have a very balanced squad, although they played very rusty football in the first fixture against Syria, but somehow managed to clinch all the winning points. Now they face a tough opponent like Uzbekistan, who are going to defend their crown, which they lifted in 2023 after defeating Iraq in the final.
Talking about the home side, Uzbekistan U20, who surpassed Bangladesh U20 with a two-goal deficit in the first match as Kuvanishbek Saydaliev and Abraev Kunonchbek struck goals for the 2023 AFC U20 Asian Cup Champions. Against India, they will play their natural style of attacking football under Gerard Jones, as at home it will give them an added advantage to secure their second consecutive victory and book a berth in the AFC U20 Asian Cup’s main phase.
