The game sprung to life in the final ten minutes of the match, with both sides earning glorious chances. The best one came to BUFC in the 83^rd minute as a slew of errors in the Sreebhumi box saw BUFC’s Paromita Sit miss a sitter in a 1v1 situation. With the goal gaping, she had a second go but her effort was cleared off the line as the crowd drew a collective gasp.

Both goalkeepers, Vinaya Seshan of BUFC and Rumpa Malik of Sreebhumi had fantastic games as they both kept clean sheets and helped their team earn a point apiece.
