BEL 3-2 IND

What a game we've had from these 2 teams for the second game in a row! Terrific hockey from 2 top sides who are hunting Netherlands for the top spot on the table! India with the shoot-out win yesterday. Belgium with the win today. Truly hockey at its best!

Belgium beat India 3-2, in what was a very close encounter!

Hendrickx scored in a Penalty Stroke but India soon made it 3-2 thanks to Mandeep Singh's superb play. But that ws not enough as only 30 seconds were left to score the equaliser. Vivek Prasad had a chance but miscued the shot. 

Final whistle and India fall short by 2 goals. 

What a save from Belgium goalie!

Harmanpreet took the PC chance and he went to the top left corner, but goalkeeper Vanasch up to the task with brilliant reflexes to get a glove to it! Great save from one of the best in the business!

India 1-2 Belgium

GOAL!

Belgium convert PC

A ripper from Hendrickx! Right between the legs of Sreejesh. Nothing he can do to stop that. Belgium have the lead!

India 1-2 Belgium

End of Q3

India 1-1 Belgium 

Even stevens after the end of third quarter and just 15 minutes more left. 

Good half for Belgium. They got the all-important equaliser. Both the teams showed the attacking intent. 15 minutes to settle this. Who will score the the winner in regular time? Or will we head to a shoot-out again?

Last quarter coming up! Don't go anyway!

GOAL!

Belgium are level! Right at the start of the second half. The attack starts from the center, but Shamsher throws in a tackle that takes the ball to the left where Kerpel is free to smash it into the goal!

India 1-1 Belgium

India 1-0 Belgium

It's another cracker of a game, despite the lack of goals. The one goal that did come was hockey at its absolute best from India, with 5 one touch passes setting up a tap in into an empty goal for Abhishek. A delightful set up for the upcoming second half.

GOALLL!

India score!

What a GOAL! It's the 5 quick one touch passes that give Abhishek an open goal to tap the ball into. Gurjant, Lalit and Sukhjeet heavily involved in the build up there.

India 0-0 Belgium

Belgium start the quarter positively. Charlier sets up the attack for them and a flashing cross causes confusion in the Indian circle. But Varun manages to clear.

India 0-0 Belgium!

India enjoyed more possesion in this quarter even if Belgium started off aggressively. Many scoring options but poor finishes from India. 

India 0 - 0 BEL

Belgium again enter the Indian circle and Jarmanpreet error hands Belgium a PC which they fail to convert, a poor drag flick, Varun steers the ball away to Lalit, who makes a mess of a free hit. 

India 0-0 Belgium

India on back foot at the start. Belgium with a good ball into the circle with two quick passes. But Harmanpreet calmly gets a tackle in before Boone could get his shot away. Belgium on the attack from the word go. 

Lineups!
