End of first quarter
What a start to the match for India. They have scored twice in the first fifteen minutes, and both have been field goals. The defence was up to the task too when needed.
Led from the front by captain Vivek Sagar Prasad, the Indians seem to have left the demons of yesterday behind. A lot to ponder for the Canadians.
India 2 - 0 Canada.
