29' - PC MISSED!
A brilliant rush from Belgium and Gurjit did not even have time to take the drag flick there. That was a poor, slow injection from India and a brilliant rush from Belgium . PC handed to India after a high ball inside the circle. Nevertheless, it goes begging.

27' - Poor cross from Tete!
India once again try to create play from the right. Salima Tete back passes to Sharmila and runs. The latter returns the ball, but Tete's cross is poor as Belgium intercept with ease. There was no way for that cross to find Vandana in the circle.
