END OF THE FIRST QUARTER!

It's been a rather sedate first 15 minutes of play. India made a grave defensive error early on in the match and Argentina made sure they paid the price for it.

Since then, the match has largely been very tactical. The Indians have pressed forward and created a couple of chances – there was one chaotic moment just seconds before the first quarter hooter – but the Argentine defence has been very compact to deny the hosts any whiff at equalising.

IND 0-1 ARG

8' - Good interception from Ruiz

India looking to aggress and they create a chance with a good aerial ball forward. It is collected cleanly at the top of the circle on the left, but the pass into the circle is intercepted very cleanly by Argentina's captain Tomas Ruiz.

That is top-notch defending from the skipper to avert the danger!

IND 0-1 ARG

5' - Rohit walks off

An Argentine pass raises high in the midfield and Indian captain Rohit copes a blow to his arm. He is down in pain before eventually walking off the field.

India will hope that it's nothing to serious and Rohit can return to the field soon.

3' - Penalty stroke, Argentina!

Nicolas Rodriguez with a brilliant steal and a solo run into the circle. Anmol Ekka comes up with a harsh challenge on the Argentine to save India, but the tackle is made inside the shooting circle.

The umpire hands a penalty corner to Argentina before quickly upgrading it to a stroke. India don't even bother reviewing that. They knew it was the right call.

The shoulder barge from Ekka has handed Argentina a golden opportunity. Can they score?

IND 0-0 ARG
