Considering the Koreans are the 16th ranked squad in the world, this was a very respectful performance put up by the Indian lads.

With the action complete, this is Yash Matange signing off. Stay tuned to Sportskeeda Basketball for all the live updates and action with regards to India's performance at the 2018 FIBA U-18 Asia Championships.

Full-Time! India lose 89-119 to Korea!

India are now 0-2 through 2 games in Group D while the Koreans are 2-0. That loss in the first one must really be pinching right now. Chinese Taipei and Syria are set to play later today and most likely it will be India and Syria playing for the third and final qualification spot tomorrow.

Koreans, even the bench, way too quick for the Indians. They take the lead back to near the 40s, 39 in fact!

India's scoring in the inconsequential final quarter has brought the lead to around the 30s.

84-117 with 4:10 to go.

Mathematically, it's down to Syria (considering Syria lose to Chinese Taipei later today) and India for the third and final team that will come out of Group D.

This is U18 FIBA garbage time basketball going on right now.

Lot of sloppy passing, careless turnovers, ambitious long 3s and so on.

India scoring in spurts but the Korean bench did more than enough to keep the lead at 40!

End of Q3, India 64-105 Korea

With most of Korea's bench out on the court right now, lot of sloppy passing on both ends.

Scores have only changed by a couple of points for both teams in the past 2 minutes.

Indians score again but simply not enough here!

Down by 39 right now.

It's 99-58 right now with 2:47 to go in the third quarter.

Korea now piercing gaps and playing some clinical basketball here. Expected for the 16th ranked squad in the world!

Another one for India, a mid-range jumper but yet another 3 for Korea.

Indians get one more bucket to fall but they have been outscored 22-10 in the third quarter when the lead was already 26!

90-52. Things getting out of hand here!
