The whistle’s gone and we’re off. The ball’s rolling, the crowd’s buzzing, and both sides are already jostling for early control. Here we go.

India waste no time at all, skipper Shubhangi Singh gets the party started just seven minutes in! A corner swings in like it’s on a mission, bouncing through a tangle of legs before Shubhangi pounces and smashes it into the net.

India are running the show here, passing it around like the ball’s theirs for keeps. The other side can’t get near it. They even have a go at making it 2-0, but the shot’s a bit tame and gets booted way past the goal.

In the 14th minute, Sibani Devi doubles India’s lead. It’s a gift, really, as the Turkmenistan keeper makes a horrible mess of it. Sibani is right there to say “thank you very much” and slots it home with ease. Two goals up and the Young Tigresses are roaring.

It’s all India after going 2-0 up. They’re swarming forward, owning every blade of grass, and the opponents look rattled. Turkmenistan need to find a response, and they need it fast.

Whaaat, that was brilliant. Thoibisana Chanu makes it three for India. A corner sails in and she times her jump perfectly, meeting it with a firm header that leaves the keeper rooted. The Young Tigresses are running riot.

India’s pressing is relentless, Turkmenistan can’t catch a break. Another shot flies straight into the net, and it’s Sulanjana Raul adding her name to the scoresheet.

Captain Shubhangi Singh’s brace pushes India to a commanding 5-0 lead, and it’s still just the first half! The Young Tigresses are absolutely flying right now.

Half-time whistle blows with India cruising at 5-0. The Young Tigresses have dominated every moment, solid defense, slick passing, and clinical finishing. Turkmenistan have been left chasing shadows, struggling to find any rhythm. If India keep this up, the second half could be just a formality.

And we’re back for the second half! India look confident and hungry to keep the goals coming. Turkmenistan will need a serious spark to turn this around. Let’s see what the next 45 minutes have in store.

And there it is, another goal. Pooja steps up and finds the net, adding to India’s unstoppable run. The Young Tigresses aren’t letting up one bit.

80 minutes in, and India are absolutely everywhere, relentless, hungry, and not giving Turkmenistan a single moment to breathe. They’re chasing every ball and making sure nothing slips through. This one’s firmly in India’s hands.

The full-time whistle blows with India cruising to a dominant 7-0 win over Turkmenistan at the AFC U20 Women's Asian Cup Qualifier in Thuwunna Stadium. Captain Shubhangi Singh led the charge with a brace (7', 42'), joined by goals from Sibani Devi (14'), Chanu (35'), Sulanjana Raul, who struck twice (38', 90+4'), and Pooja (65') to seal the emphatic victory.

That’s a wrap from us. We’ll catch you again with another live blog soon. Until then, bye bye
