The Indian eves had already crashed out of their group following heavy defeats at the hands of South Korea, North Korea and Uzbekistan. But they ensured they ended the campaign on the right note by consigning Hong Kong to a defeat.
Indian Women dominated the tie from start to finish and created plenty of chances while also enjoying lots of possession. But the Blue Tigresses failed to open the scoring in the first half and had to wait until the 68th minute when Ratanbala was brought down inside the box, allowing Sasmita Malik to convert the penalty.
