India were trailing 0-1 after the end of the first half but they fought back hard in the second half to end the game 2-2
on level terms in the regulation time before stealing the win from Belgium in the shoot-out.
Belgium started the first quarter on a high as they had a shot on target in the first minute of the game itself. They
continued the approach, keeping the Indian team on the defence. India found a crack in Belgium’s defence as Manmeet took
a straight shot at Belgium’s post, but it was saved as the scoreline remained nil-nil. India then won the first penalty
corner of the match in the 10th minute but failed to convert. Belgium then struck the first goal of the match in the
13th minute thanks to Cornez-Massant, who made India concede for the first time in the tournament, to end the first

Belgium took control of the ball early in the third quarter, but India started to find possession midway through and
finally won their third penalty corner of the match in the 39th minute. However, just like the first two attempts, they
failed to convert once more as Belgium’s lead stayed in place. India won the fourth penalty corner of the match in the
45th minute, but this time skipper Rohit delivered to end the third quarter tied 1-1 with Belgium.
Belgium, just like in the third quarter, took early control in the fourth quarter and won their fifth penalty corner of
the match, but India defended well to keep the score level at 1-1. Then India won their fifth penalty corner of the
match and Sharda Nand Tiwari converted with ease to finally put India in a 2-1 lead. Belgium then pulled off a stunner
in the 59th minute to level the score 2-2 and send the match to a penalty shoot-out.
