35 Minutes done
Thailand finally with some possession after a long time. They enter the circle, but the Indian defence is up to the task. They have not been really required a lot today, but have done a decent job so far.

END of the FIRST HALF
That's the end of the first half and this has been just plain old school bullying from India. I am not even sure whether the South Koreans had the ball for more than 2 minutes in this half.
The Indians scored 5 in the first quarter, but were generous enough to slot in only four in the second, I guess.

Goal number 8!
This is just getting bad to worse for Thailand. Another PC, the Thai goalkeeper saves. But, it sadly deflects to an Indian player who powerfully flicks it in.

You can't deny her for long!
She was denied two drag-flicks with wonderful saves in the past couple of minutes, but you cannot deny Gurjit for long. Yet another PC and she finally slots one in. GOALLLLL!

WHAT A SAVE!
Another PC for India and Gurjit comes up with a powerful dragflick. The Thailand goalkeeper dives full length to her left and denies India their seventh goal.

6-0
Monika runs into the circle and she is surrounded. No problem says the midfielder as she calmy passes it to Rajwinder, who just has to tap it in.

End of 1st Quarter
That's also the end of the first quarter and the Indian women have left no room for error for the Thai. It is going to be a long day for Thailand, it seems.
