THE INDIANS ARE NOW ALMOST CERTAIN OF TOPPING THEIR POOL - AND THE WIN SHOULD GIVE THEM JUST THE CONFIDENCE THEY NEED FOR THE KNOCKOUTS - THE INDIAN PLAYERS ALWAYS BELIEVED THEY COULD BEAT SOUTH KOREA AFTER THE LOSS IN THE ASIAN CHAMPIONS TROPHY FINALS - AND HAVE WALKED THE TALK TODAY

THE STATS, LADIES AND GENTS - THE INDIANS HAD ONLY 5 SHOTS ON GOAL - THE KOREANS HAD EVEN FEWER - 4 IN TOTAL!!! THE INDIANS EARNED 2 PC's AND CONVERTED BOTH - ALL CREDIT TO THE INDIAN DEFENCE THAT THE KOREANS FAILED TO EARN A SINGLE PC - THAT ESSENTIALLY MADE ALL THE DIFFERENCE. THE KOREANS GOT THEIR ONLY GOAL FROM A PENALTY STROKE - WHICH WAS RATHER CONTROVERSIAL - AS IT SEEMED TO HAVE BEEN DRAGGED!

THE INDIANS GIRLS HAVE AVENGED DONGHAE - GURJIT KAUR HELPS INDIA REGISTER A MAGNIFICIENT WIN OVER SOUTH KOREA - THE KOREAN DEFENCE WAS SHARP - THE MARKING WAS TIGHT - BUT VANDANA SHOWED HER EXCEPTIONAL SKILLS - AND, GURJIT KAUR DOES THE TRICK FOR HER TEAM WHEN THEY MOST NEEDED IT!!!!
