India play out goalless draw against Nepal in second women’s football friendly

Firstpost  

Chennai: The Indian women’s football team played out a goalless draw against Nepal in an international friendly at the Jawaharlal Nehru Stadium on Saturday. An injury-hit India were denied by a flurry of saves by Nepal goalkeeper Anjila Subba in the second half, as the Blue Tigresses now turn their attention to preparing for the AFC Women’s Olympic Qualifiers first round. Manisha Kalyan wrong-footed her marker and punched the ball with the outside of her boot, but it went straight into Nepal keeper Anjila Subba’s hands. Karthika had arguably the best opportunity in the 30th minute when she produced a sublime curling effort but an airborne Anjila pulled off an equally brilliant save to deny her.
