12:04 (IST)27 NOV 2016

Talvinder and then Rupinder scored to make the final score 4-1.

12:03 (IST)27 NOV 2016

However, in the 4th quarter it was all India.

12:03 (IST)27 NOV 2016

Raghunath doubled the lead only to see Malaysia strike back within a few seconds.

12:02 (IST)27 NOV 2016

Akashdeep Singh gave India the early lead.

12:02 (IST)27 NOV 2016

And the hooter sounds. It's all over. India win 4-1.

12:01 (IST)27 NOV 2016

Into the final minute of action. And India set to clinch third place in the tournament.

12:00 (IST)27 NOV 2016

About 90 seconds left in this one. Malaysia looking for a last hurrah.

12:00 (IST)27 NOV 2016

The Indians wanted to atone for their dodgy display from  yesterday and they have done so. 

11:59 (IST)27 NOV 2016

The result now doesn't seem to be in any doubt.

11:59 (IST)27 NOV 2016

3 minutes left in the contest.

11:58 (IST)27 NOV 2016

Rupinder scores. His sixth of the tournament and there is no stopping this guy.

11:58 (IST)27 NOV 2016

GOAAAAL!!

11:57 (IST)27 NOV 2016

Rupinder on the field this time.

11:57 (IST)27 NOV 2016

And this time India have been awarded a PC. Sardar with another nimble run into the circle and gets India another golden opportunity.

11:56 (IST)27 NOV 2016

More chances of this being a 4-1 rather than 3-2

11:55 (IST)27 NOV 2016

5 minutes to go. And India still looking the more dangerous side. 

11:54 (IST)27 NOV 2016

Pardeep Mor down now. He has bit in the "unmentionables". That of course looks nasty  :D

11:51 (IST)27 NOV 2016

Only 8 minutes remaining in the game. India finally have some space to breathe.

11:50 (IST)27 NOV 2016

Talvinder with the goal. Poor marking inside the circle.

11:50 (IST)27 NOV 2016

And India score.

11:47 (IST)27 NOV 2016

48' - Akashdeep with a shot. But Kumar is there again. 

11:46 (IST)27 NOV 2016

Malaysia haven't had anything going for them except the goal. India will be mightily disappointed at having conceded so lat on.

11:44 (IST)27 NOV 2016

And we are off in the final quarter.

11:42 (IST)27 NOV 2016

Third quarter ends. And India have a one goal lead.

11:42 (IST)27 NOV 2016

That was sloppy from Surender Singh who fails to get ahead of his man.

11:41 (IST)27 NOV 2016

Joel van Heuzen scores with a deflection at the near post.

11:40 (IST)27 NOV 2016

And just as we speak Malaysia strike back. 

11:40 (IST)27 NOV 2016

Goes in between the two runners and the goalkeeper is totally unsighted as it crashes into the backboard.

11:39 (IST)27 NOV 2016

Raghunath finally scores from the PC. 

11:39 (IST)27 NOV 2016

And GOAAAAAL!

11:39 (IST)27 NOV 2016

Bad trap. But comes to Raghunath who drag flicks it. Great save but another PC.

11:38 (IST)27 NOV 2016

Sardar to inject.

11:38 (IST)27 NOV 2016

Great play from Raghunath down the right leads to the PC.

11:37 (IST)27 NOV 2016

We are into the last minute of the third quarter and we have a PC for IND.

11:37 (IST)27 NOV 2016

Malaysia have really failed get into the thick of things this half so far. India have had it all their way.

11:33 (IST)27 NOV 2016

11:32 (IST)27 NOV 2016

Talwinder Singh with a shot from the left, Kumar saves it well. India on the ascendancy here in Melbourne.

11:31 (IST)27 NOV 2016

India still having the greater joy. Malaysia haven't been able to get into it at all so far.

11:29 (IST)27 NOV 2016

5 minutes gone in the 3rd quarter. India still leading 1-0.

11:27 (IST)27 NOV 2016

Another attack from India. But Satvir Singh's reverse hit is sloppy and is lifted in the air. Kumar saves and Malaysia get away.

11:26 (IST)27 NOV 2016

Izad Hakimi of Malaysia down. Akashdeep's smack catches Hakimi on the wrist. That's gotta have hurt.

11:25 (IST)27 NOV 2016

India really have taken the game by the horns in the opening minutes of the second half. 

11:24 (IST)27 NOV 2016
