Pyari brace guides India to facile win
A double strike from substitute Pyari Xaxa helped a dominant Indian women\'s team beat Malaysia 2-0 in an international friendly match in Kuala Lumpur on Monday.
Kuala Lumpur: A double strike from substitute Pyari Xaxa helped a dominant Indian women's team beat Malaysia 2-0 in an international friendly match in Kuala Lumpur on Monday.
After a barren first half, Pyari scored in the 79th and the 86th minutes of the match played at the MP Selayang Stadium.
India's dominance was complete throughout the match, except for a brief spell in the second half. Malaysia did not have much to boast about in the match.
Despite all the dominance, India were not able to find the back of Malaysian net. Too much excitement forced players to take a crack from long ranges even when their team-mates were in the clear, and at times they preferred to hold on for too long, enabling the rivals to outnumber them.
India's best chance came in the 24th minute but an acrobatic Nurul dived full length to deny Kamala Devi's header from entering the net, Then, in the 27th minute, even as Nurul missed the flight of a Prameshwori Devi free-kick, it was headed out off the goal-line by defender Eslilah Esar.
