Odisha have their noses in front, and Bengal, despite a good start, are on the short end of the stick.
Can they fight back in the second half?

BENGAL TIGERS 0-1 ODISHA WARRIORS
How many times have we seen this? A goal against the run of play, and today, Odisha, having made a slow start, have their noses in front thanks to Baljeet Kaur!
It was a typical poacher's finish, with the forward in the right place at the right time to deflect the incoming pass into the goal, too quick for the keeper to react.
How will Bengal respond now?

Bengal, after a 4-1 loss to Soorma in their opening game, gave a spirited performance in their win against Delhi Pipers and will now look to make it two wins in two matches.
