That's it then. It's full time here at Tashkent and Belarus have humbled India 2-1. After a decent first half, India could never kickstart in the second period and were sloppy in the concession of both goals. Still, the side has competed well over the two games considering the fact that they are only just returning to full time action after more than a year out.
Sangita Basfore scores a screamer from almost 40 yards out with just about the last kick of the game.
Pyari comes close again as she slides in to connect with a cross but puts it into the side net.
The free kick is blasted wide by Dangmei. Seems like that is that.
Foul for India from a dangerous position outside the box. Can we pull one back?
Belarus break through once again down their right as a wonderful through ball is taken around Aditi but the shot hits the post and is cleared.
A beautifully curated move from Belarus sees their left sided midfielder slot it in past Aditi. Belarus double their lead.
Belarus 2-0 India
Belarus are coming on strong since their goal as they create chance after chance. Looking good for a second goal unfortunately.
Goal for Belarus as their number 15 slots it towards Aditi's left leaving her with no chance.
Belarus 1-0 India
