India U17 0-1 Russia U17 LIVE Score, Women’s Friendlies: Young Tigresses Concede Right Before Half-Time

That was the final action of the half. Russia had 68% ball posession and fie shots, with three on target, compared to just two overall from India. Honestly, it's a bit surprise that it took so long for the hosts to find the back of the net. A big, big half-time talk awaits Pamela Conti.

Russia take the lead just before half-time!! Frolova was just too powerful for Abhista, winning posession near the edge of the box before cutting it back for Menyailova. The Russian attacker takes a weak shot with his right, but it somehow creeps past Munni into the bottom corner.

The best chance of the game, and it comes to Russia. A good threaded pass finds the run of Sorokina, who takes a first-time shot. However, Munni comes rushing out and makes a good save with her feet.

The tempo of the game has dropped quite a bit as Russia are happy to cycle possession in their own half. India, meanwhile, are happy to play without the ball, looking to hit the hosts on the counter. The half is yet to open up, really.

Russia are growing into the game now, creating multiple opportunities in quick succession and putting India’s defence under real pressure.

India U17 have come out with real intent, dominating possession and putting Russia under early pressure. The Young Tigresses are attacking with pace down the wings and pushing hard to break the deadlock early.
