Karman Singh, on the other hand, lost his opening-round match 1-2 to Bahrain’s Faqeehi Abdulaziz Abdullatif despite fighting hard.

One of the best EA Sports FC Online players in India is Charanjot Singh. In the Asian Games 2023 FIFA Online 4 seeding competition, he had defeated other South Asian athletes from Nepal, Bangladesh, and Sri Lanka to earn the top seeding, while Karman Singh Tikka had placed fifth.
