India suffered an embarrassing 0-6 rout at the hands of formidable United Arab Emirates — their heaviest defeat against the Gulf side — in the second International football friendly here on Monday.

Such was their performance that Igor Stimac’s side did not even get a single shot on target in one of the most forgettable encounters in recent times.

Striker Ali Mabkhout scored a hat-trick with goals in the 12th, 32nd and 60th minutes while Khalil Ibrahim (64th) and Fabio Lima (71st and 84th) added the other three.

India gave a good account of themselves in their first friendly match against fancied Oman on March 25 with an impressive 1-1 draw.
