Pakistan win a review

Rajkumar Pal gets an aerial ball and he deflects it to a Pakistani defender's boot. PC, given and Pakistan have asked for a review. They argue they were close to Pal before the ball was sent to him aerial.

The umpire agrees. Pakistan keeps their review and that PC is retracted. 

Opportunity missed

A brilliant pass from the half-line, and it finds Akashdeep Singh perfectly. Singh however in a hurry deflects it wide. He taught he was surrounded, but the fact is he was not. 

He could have taken his time to slot it in.

Wonderful from Harmanpreet!

A spurt of energy from Pakistan as they penetrate the circle within a minute of the final quarter. Harmanpreet with a wonderful tackle, but it is given as a PC.

Manpreet decides to review, and the decision is overturned. Brilliant this from Harmanpreet and then from Manpreet to review this! 

End of 3rd quarter

The Pakistanis seemed down and out, but a moment of brilliance from Rana and Junaid has brought them right into this. Can they make a comeback?

Akashdeep it is, from the field!

Sumit with a wonderful interception, Shilanand Lakra with a brilliant penetration and tries to slot it in. The Pakistani goalkeeper saves, but it again reaches to Sumit who just calmly passes it to Akashdeep.

Pakistan down to 10 men

Hamaduddin gets a green as he fiddles with the ball after the foul whistle is blown. Pakistan has barely had possession in this quarter and this is certainly not good for them.

Pakistan on counter

37' Mubashar Ali intercepts and starts a counter, but it is short-lived as he fails to pass it clearly to the forward.
