Thanks for that report, Gautam. Pakistan played a goalless draw against Malaysia in the SF, and won 6-5 on penalties. So they appear to be feeling the pressure as well. The key in the final (tomorrow) will be to score early, and preferably more than once!!

Just saw some highlights of the match. We seem to have dominated, but our finishing was poor -- apart from the brilliant goal by Akashdeep, who hit it like a Federer between the legs shot!

Women's team have just beaten Japan 2-1 to get the bronze. Pleasantly surprised by their performance. Haven't been able to see any of their matches, but stats seem to show some improvement. Getting Jaspreet and Rani Rampal in the team always improves our results . Well done to the ladies.

Saw bits and pieces of the match. Our women played with a lot of discipline. The finishing was poor. I hope we can qualify for the Olympics.

1-1 at half time.Kothajit equalled for India. A very good field goal. India dominated the second quarter after starting cold and allowing an unmarked player to score the goal in 2 mins.

Yes, it looked like it . But, no one complained. It seems there is no extra time here. Straightaway a penalty shoot out.
