Anastasia gave a good start to her match with one frame lead but after that she faltered and lost the next frame by a narrow margin.

By that time, So Man Yan had gained momentum and sealed the third frame completely one-sided 35-01. Though she lost the fourth frame merely by one point, but in decider she held her nerve better to clinch the match 48-36 and made her groups tally 2-0.

She will now play her last league match against Indian player Ashwini Puranik before proceeding to knockout stage.
