35`
Others
The whole team was on the circle periphery. Russia tried a variation by stopping the ball way out of the circle so that they get more time with the ball as the defenders would have to run more. They time their hit well but it is misdirected. It is HALF TIME with scores leveled at 0-0.
35`
Penalty Corner
for Russia with under 25s remain. Rough tackle to Namita Toppo.

Others
Not stopped cleanly by the Russians Then there is huge confusion between the strikers as to who will hit it. Russia lose a good chance to score.
