Uruguay Defeats India 6-1 in Kolkata International Football Friendly
India suffered a 6-1 defeat against two-time World Cup winner Uruguay in an international friendly at Kolkata's Salt Lake Stadium.

After a 30-35 minute lightning delay, Uruguay dominated the second half, scoring five more goals through Maximiliano Araujo (two), Rodrigo Zalazar, Juan Manuel Sanabria, and Rodrigo Aguirre. The loss capped a challenging international window for India, which included a draw with Panama and a heavy defeat to Brazil.
