SPORTS: India clinch their fifth ACT title as they win the Asian Champions Trophy 2024 by defeating China in the final by a margin of 1-0.

This is their second consecutive Asian Champions Trophy title after winning the previous edition in 2023. Despite India being in top form, the final was not easy for them as China produced a strong defensive display and kept India at bay for three quarters.

As India were nearing desperation, captain Harmanpreet Singh stepped up, providing an assist for Jugraj Singh who didn’t do any mistake and buried the ball into the net.

The late goal was enough for India to maintain the control for the remainder of the game and secure the title victory.
