- India suffered a 0-3 defeat to IR Iran on September 1 at Hisor Central Stadium, with Amirhossein Hosseinzadeh, Ali Alipour, and Mehdi Taremi scoring late goals.
- Despite Jamil's setup, Iran relied on their superior quality and squad depth, highlighted by substitutes Alireza Jahanbakhsh and Mehdi Taremi, to maintain pressure despite India's compact 4-5-1.
- India's backline, led by Gurpreet Singh Sandhu, limited Iran to half-chances and kept the first half goalless with key interventions from Sandesh Jhingan and Anwar Ali.

- The defeat highlighted the FIFA rankings gap between Iran and India, increasing pressure on Khalid Jamil to secure a win against Afghanistan in the CAFA Nations Cup 2025.
