Bollywood anyone?
In what is now a common theme all over the world, the Indian team is presented with their gifts with songs from Salam Namaste and Chak De India playing in the background.

Full Time
It's all over. India played well but Maymol Rocky will be disappointed with how they failed to find the net in the second half and then conceded the goal. Much to work on before Belarus comes calling.

Can India hit back?
India have to go all out to respond now. Looks increasingly difficult considering the minimal time that is left.

GOOAAL....
Brilliant free-kick from the Uzbekistan number 11 whose powerful drive leaves Aditi Chauhan with no chance and nestles in the top corner.
Uzbekistan 1-0 India

Another good chance goes begging
India fail to utilise another great opportunity. This time, the square pass inside the box doesn't have enough power to reach the free player inside the box and is kicked out for a corner.
