3' - RUTAJA SCORESSS!

India hits back as Pisal Rutaja's stroke from the right flank beats the keeper and goes in. 

IND 1-1 SUI

2' - SWITZERLAND SCORESSS!

A miss pass from the Indian defence and the Swiss get the possession at an open area. They slots it in and make it count. Poor from India.

IND 0-1 SUI

1' - Good start from India!

They find the gap and take a long shot, the ball deflects off a Swiss player's stick and almost goes in. THAT WAS CLOSE!

Players stride out!

Both teams are out on the field. India to move from left to right. Switzerland with the possession.

Up Next: India Women v/s Switzerland

The Indian women's team will take on Switzerland in a must win contest next. A loss here would surely show them the exit doors from the inaugural edition of FIH Hockey 5s, but a win might just about keep them in contention.

Remember, Switzerland won both their matches yesterday and the Indians will have their task cut out. 

Stay tuned!

INDIAN MEN MOVE TO TOP OF TABLE!

That victory against Malaysia puts the Indian men's team on the top of the table and they are now comfortably placed to go the final with a match in hand. 

India now has 7 points in 3 games, while Poland is second with 6 in 3 matches and Pakistan follow closely with 4 points in 2 contests.

INDIA WINSSSS!

This was a walk in the park for the Indians. They did not have to break a sweat and have managed an easy 7-3 victory. Malaysia were in it till the halftime, but the way India came back after the two-minute break was simply extraordinary.

19' - Boby hits the crossbar!

A long distance shot from Boby Dhami and he finds the crossbar. THAT WAS CLOSE!

18' - HATTRICK, RAHEEL!

India continues to run away with this contest. Raheel once again left open and he takes the toll. Hat-trick for the Indian as he continues to pile on the goals.

IND 7-3 MAS
