END OF THIRD QUARTER!
That's the end of the third quarter and the Netherlands have managed to protect their 1-goal lead. The Indian defence has been impeccable today, but their possession rate seems to be falling with each passing minute.
The Dutch are yet to concede a single goal this World Cup so far and India have their task cut out for the final 15 minutes.
