Q3, India 2-1 Great Britain: India score almost immediately! GB lose possession immediately after the restart. A couple of defence-splitting passes later, Mumtaz Khan plays the ball to an unmarked Vandana Katariya on the left. The pass is a bit quick which forced Katariya to stretch further away and narrow the angle. She still has time and space to set herself up and fires the ball powerfully aiming for the opposite corner of goal. Buchanan instinctively puts out her glove to make a superb save.
HT, India 2-1 Great Britain, India assistant coach Dave Smolenaars: We know GB play a high tempo game but we managed to get back and score. We need to manage the tempo in the second half and get the result.
HT, India 2-1 Great Britain: India end the half on a very good note. Some lovely inter-play between Sunelita Toppo and Navneet Kaur as India keep possession. GB defending deep allowing India to pick their passes. And the hooter goes off to mark the end of the half.
Q2, India 2-1 Great Britain: Udita with a poor tackle in the circle. GB review asking for deliberate foul for penalty stroke. The TV umpire disagrees and only gives GB a PC. Not a good drag...
