A report circulating via Prabhat Khabar claims that the Indian national football team recently played an international friendly match against Brazil in Kolkata, resulting in a 4-0 victory for the visitors. The report alleges that goals were scored by Estevao, Pedro, and Samuel Lino. However, there is no evidence to support that this match occurred.
Checks against official FIFA international match calendars and major global sports news outlets confirm that no such fixture was scheduled or played. The Indian national team has not hosted the Brazilian national team for an international friendly, and the claims regarding specific goal scorers and the match venue in Kolkata are entirely unsubstantiated.
Sports fans and media observers are advised that this report is inaccurate. Official match results and schedules for international football are maintained by FIFA and national football associations, and no record of this event exists in those databases.
There is no record of an international friendly match between India and Brazil taking place in Kolkata or elsewhere. The claim is a fabrication, as no such match appears on the official FIFA calendar or in any reputable sports news coverage.
No corroborating trusted sources found.
