Indian Senior Women go down to Korea Republic in Pink Ladies Cup

Sharjah (UAE), Feb. 26 -- The Indian Senior Women's team went down to Korea Republic 0-3 in their concluding Pink Ladies Cup at the Al Hamriya Sports Club Stadium here on Wednesday.

The Koreans, placed 20th in the FIFA rankings, led 2-0 at half time.

While Choi Yoojung and Choi Dagyeong put Korea Republic in the lead in the first half, Mun Eunju rounded off the tally in the 81st minute.

In the Pink Ladies Cup, India played three matches winning the opener against Jordan, before going down to Russia and Korea.

As expected, the Koreans proved to be a team too hot to handle and camped themselves in the Indian half right from the word go. Credit to Crispin Chettri's girls for closing the gaps early. It took the sting out of Korean attack...
