Thank You for Joining!
India and China played a rather rustic 1-1 draw today with both teams making unforced errors and not capitalising on chances. China struck the first blow after Zhang ran through the Indian defence before India equalised with another Vandana Katariya goal.
The 4th quarter remained goalless as both teams kept giving the balls away.
Thanks for tuning in. We will see you in India's last game against New Zealand. Keep praying till then.

India have themselves to blame as they committed too many unforced errors.
China dominated India and were a better team than India for majority of the game but failed to capitalize on important chances.
