World Cup Qualifier: Nepal suffers 2-0 defeat to Yemen



KATHMANDU: In the second match of the World Cup qualifiers, Nepal faced a setback as they succumbed to a 2-0 defeat against Yemen.

The match, held at Dasharath Stadium in Tripureshwar on Tuesday evening, saw Nepal struggling to break through Yemen’s defense.

Part of Group H alongside Yemen, Bahrain, and the UAE, Nepal’s journey in the qualifiers has remained a challenging one.
