It's full-time here as India Under-17s play a 1-1 draw with Lega Pro XI despite being down to 10 men for the majority of the 2nd half. That's all from us here. Until next time, goodbye!
2nd half 28' The Colts are somehow holding on to the 1-1 scoreline as Lega Pro are creating dangerous situations in attack. However, the Italian side's lack of quality means that India haven't had to face enough tricky moments in the 2nd half.
30' Everything seems to break down in the final third. Both teams have failed to create meaningful openings and that has clearly been because of a lack of quality on the ball.
21' Lega Pro have attacked from their left. Their left winger running on to lofted balls has been a theme so far. The Colts have defended well though, that goal aside.
20' Patient attacking play sees the Colts earn a corner here. It's a looping ball but there's a shot at the end of it which is hit over the bar. India 1-1 Lega Pro
15' India have set up in a 4-1-4-1 shape that allows them to have flexibility in midfield transitions. It has worked well so far as the Colts have kept Lega Pro at an arms length. However, their passes in possession have been ordinary.
9' Most of the play has been happening in the midfield so far. Italy haven't been able to penetrate centrally, while the Colts have somewhat slowed down after their rapid start.
2' Early pressure from India results in a promising freekick situation. Aniket and Komal are pressing well from the front. Freekick to India from the edge of the box.
