New Delhi, Apr 9 (IANS): The Indian women s football team s campaign in Uzbekistan came to an end with a 1-2 defeat to Belarus in the second friendly match in Tashkent.
Maymol Rocky s India had earlier lost the opening tie of the two-match friendly series to a much higher-ranked Uzbekistan 0-1 in extremely cold and windy conditions on April 5.
After a barren first half when the Indian team defended doggedly, Belarus, ranked three spots below India in world rankings, took the lead through a Shuppo Nastassia s penalty, before Pilipenka Hanna doubled the lead. For the visitors, Sangita Basfore, skipper during the tour of Turkey in February this year, pulled one back in added time.
