Looks like this match will go into round 2

25 seconds to go for round 1 to end

Vinesh 10-3 Macdonald

But the judges are having a long discussion

And the score now has been revised to 10-3

STOPPAGE IN PLAY!

Vinesh 13-3 Macdonald

That's the score right now

We have a stoppage in the match, because the Canadian has suffered a cut to the head

The Canadian is desperately trying to get the pin as a last attempt

Vinesh 13-3 Macdonald

The Indian is ahead on points, but the Canadian is trying to go for the pin

If she gets it she will win

Vinesh going for the attack again, but Macdonald with another reversal

And she gets 2 more points, but Macdonald reverses and gets 2 points herself to keep the match going

Vinesh 10-2 Macdonald

She is looking very good here...

4 more points to the Indian

Vinesh 8-0 Macdonald

Here goes Vinesh again... she goes for an ultra-aggresive double leg takedown

The Canadian seems shaken by that.

It was an amazing attack by the Indian

Vinesh's very first attack is to grab the Canadian by the leg and lift her up in the air

She gets 4 points for that

Vinesh 4-0 Macdonald

WOW! WOW!
