Thank you for tuning into The Bridge's Live coverage of India's clash against Thailand. This has been a wonderful start to Janneke Schopman's career as the head coach of women in blue. The Thai women on the could not have found any worse way to lose on their Asian Champions Trophy debut.
See you next time, when India takes on Malaysia tomorrow!
The final whistle of the match blows and that's the end. What a match for the Indians. They not only found the back of the net a whopping 13 times, but also managed to keep a clean slate. In fact, the Indian goalkeeper was not even required at all in the day. SUCH DOMINATION.
Full Time
India 13-0 Thailand
Yet another PC for India, and Gurjit convertssss! Goal number 13th of the match for the women in blue.
India 13-0 Thailand
The Thai defence puts up a brave fight, but eventually crumbles as India slots in one more from the field. Their first of this quarter.
India 12-0 Thailand
Just 10 minutes remaining in this contest and much like the start the Indians are still pressing hard. The Thai defence though has managed to withstand everything so far in the final quarter.
The fourth quarters start and India attempts a shot from almost the halfline. That is just wide.
There is the whistle and that's the end of the third quarter. India were a bit restraint in the past 15 minutes, but they have still managed to net two more - both field goals.
Will Thailand be able to score at least 1?
India 11-0 Thailand
Just rubbing salt into the wounds of the Thai. To be honest, India did not even seem close to scoring but the Thailand defence makes a mess out of it.
India 11-0 Thailand
40 minutes done and dusted and the Indians have slowed down their game in this quarter. They know they have this in the bag and are just passing it around without much fuss for now.
That circle penetration proves costly for Thailand as India creates a quick counterattack. The Thai defence runs back to stop it, but the coordination between the Indian players is just top notch. A wonderful field goal. That was brilliant teamwork by the Indians.
India 10-0 Thailand
