81' - Bad pass in the middle and Macedonia nearly get through the middle. But the forward can't keep his composure and shoots well over.

Can't remember a shot on goal from either side so far. The goalkeepers are having a grand time for both sides so far.

But a bad pass their from the number 16 and all the good work goes astray.

70' - India having a spell of possession now. They look down the right and get a throw-in.

But they can't much joy there and they have to go back.

68' - Macedonia time and again look to break down the left. But the defence on their right side has so far been robust.

67' - A good steal from the the Indians on the left. But they don't have the pace to get away from his defender and the attacks fizzles out.

66' - A litany of fouls being committed by the Indians as Macedonia look to be on the ascendancy.

64' - India with some neat build up play but just as they look to break on the counter, they lose the ball in the middle. Poor their from the Blue Colts.

63' - Brilliant play from the back by the Indians as they try to spring an attack down the right. Fall from the back finds the forward but his chest down is a bit heavy and that rolls out for a goal-kick.

54'- But the danger is averted and the Indians now get a GK of their own.

53' - The Indians really haven't come out of their blocks as of yet in the second half. And they concede yet another corner.

48' - India on the counter and looking dangerous. But a foul brings the play to a halt. Cynical but probably necessary.

47' - Macedonia with the first attack of the half. Gets a low cross in. But the India defenders are there right at the spot.

And we are off here again. The second forty-five begins. Can we get a winner today?

And the first half comes to and end here. Not much goalmouth action at all.

Let's hope for some better football in the second 45.

2 minutes added at the end of 45 minutes in the first half.

Macedonia down the right. They get it to their winger who comes back to the right back who is up in support. Puts in a ball there into the middle. But that is cleared. Good defending from the Indians again.

Free kick in a dangerous area for the Indians. But nothing doing.

Great play from the Macedonian kids on their left wing. But the Indian youngsters are there to thwart them.

Great interplay down the left by the Indians. But yet again, their foray into the Macedonian box goes astray.

India have taken a strong step back into the game. Looking more comfortable in possesion.
