Commonwealth Games 2018: Hockey Men's Bronze medal match, India vs England, Live Updates

That's it from us here. England have won the bronze. This is Subhashish. Goodbye!!

India did practically everything but score and will consider themselves a trifle unlucky. England managed to earn crucial PCs almost at will. Sam Ward did the rest with this lethal flicks. India were unable to find enough PCs. The Indians had their chances but England were more effective in the Indian circle and that essentially was the difference between the two teams!

England 2 - India 1 is the final score!
