GOAAAAL!!
Rupinder on the field this time.

More chances of this being a 4-1 rather than 3-2
5 minutes to go. And India still looking the more dangerous side.

Talvinder with the goal. Poor marking inside the circle.
And India score.
48' - Akashdeep with a shot. But Kumar is there again.
Malaysia haven't had anything going for them except the goal. India will be mightily disappointed at having conceded so lat on.
