Final score :: INDIA : 4 - Tajikistan : 1

Sunil Chhetri scored a Hat trick and Bhaichung bhutia scored the other goal !
awesome game by Indian footballer, I was pleasantly surprised to see how good and organized they were. Hats off to Bob Houghton!
and the greatest news is India will qualify for for Asia cup directly after 24 years.

The Nehru Cup champions were given a standing ovation by an over 20,000 crowd at the Ambedkar stadium before kick-off and the inspired men in blue scored thrice before the clock touched the 30-minute mark to lead India to a comprehensive 4-1 win.

The second title in under a year in the capital also catapulted India into the continent’s highest championship after 24 years.

Sunil Chhetri scored a hattrick (9th, 23, 75) — the first by an Indian ever in a final — and Bhaichung Bhutia added another in the 19th minute to end the contest even before their opponents warmed up.
