It was another classic India- Pakistan rivalry that turned into a great game as well. We shall hopefully be witness to more such Hockey matches in the near future. This ends India's tournament and Hockey calendar year for now.
It was a nervy last few minutes as India had only 9 men on the field and had to only defend. The score is 4-3 as they manage to get a 3rd place finish in this tournament.
Indiscipline is punished by the referee as another card is given to an Indian player in the last minute.
Same old Indian story and Pakistan score with a quick upward field play.
Even though they had 10 men on the field, India does a quick turnover and the forward scores with a tomahawk.
The ball is steered wide and India is safe for now
