Lidija Kuliš had the first chance already in the 4^th minute, when she kicked from the edge of the penalty area, but the ball went beside the goal.

After a pass of Kuliš in the 17^th minute, Mejrema Medić managed to create a position for a shot on the left side of the opponent’s penalty area, but she did not caught the ball in the best way, so it ended up in the hands of the Kazakhstan’s goalkeeper, Oksana Zheleniyak.

The guest reached the advantage in the 33^rd minute. Kamila Kulmagambetova took the free kick from the left, and Amira Spahić redirected the ball by head within the five-meter area into her own net for 0:1.

In the second half, the BH team had a slight field initiative and better ball possession, but without real opportunities to score. Only in the 69^th minute, Milena Nikolić went toward the Kazakhstan’s goal, but Zhelenyak ran out in time ahead of her own goal and prevented our attacker from kicking.

Kazakhstan doubled its advantage in the 74^th minute, when Yekaterina Babshuk by a lob shot from about 25 meters sent the ball into the net of Envera Hasanbegović.

In the additional time, Alisa Spahić tried from distance twice, but in both occasions she sent the ball over the goal and those were the last opportunities in the match.

BH will end qualifications on 4^th September, with an away match in Russia.
