India women’s football team handed 3-0 loss by Vietnam in friendly

In the 12th minute, India goalkeeper Aditi Chauhan pulled off a terrific save to deny Vietnam from doubling the lead after the visitors conceded an early goal. At the stroke of the half-hour mark, India's Bala Devi unleashed a superb shot from the centre only to see it missing the target by a whisker.

Coach Maymol Rocky chose to make early changes to the team by bringing in Daya, who replaced Sumitra in the 32nd minute. Aditi was unarguably at the top of her game, as she kept India in the fight till the 80th minute before Vietnam struck twice in quick succession to seal the tie. Thi Van tucked in the hosts’ second goal before Hang converted from a corner-kick with a minute of regulation time left on the clock.
