FULL TIME Uttar Pradesh Wizards 1-1 Delhi Waveriders

This is a great chance for Delhi to seal the contest. NOOOOO, They waste the chance as Harjeet cannot control the ball. Poor, the young player has not had a good second half

From what it looks like, we are heading towards a draw here in Delhi but WAIT!!! Delhi get a penalty corner

Uttar Pradesh try to create an opening but after entering the circle, Akashdeep loses his footing

Finally a circle entry for Uttar Pradesh Wizards but Delhi defend well. Just over three minutes remain in the match here

Uttar Pradesh Wizards get a free hit just outside the circle but cannot make anything out of it. Roelant Oltmans will be happy with a draw here, given the fact that his team will have two games remaining

Finally some urgency shown by Delhi here as they realise that they have only 8 minutes left to win the game but UP Wizards are up to the task here

Delhi Waveriders have not played well in the final quarter and they need to push further up and commit men forward

Uttar Pradesh Wizards have maintained their shape brilliantly here and even when they have lost the ball, the home team has remained strong in defence

Beautiful hockey from Chinglesana as he wins the ball again, slips past two players and threads a lovely pass to Ramandeep but the latter cannot control it.

Chinglesana has been terrific for Uttar Pradesh Wizards in midfield and his ball distribution as been impeccable

Akashdeep produces a good run on the wing but Delhi are up to the task and defend it well

Three minutes remaining in the third quarter here and we have not seen a goal from open play in the match

SAVED!!! Rupinder Pal Singh goes straight down the middle and it is a little uppish this time. Sreejesh saves it effortlessly

Penalty corner to Delhi Waveriders

SHOT!! Akashdeep with a bullet from the edge of the circle but it is saved

Uttar Pradesh Wizards are committing more men high up the pitch and they almost pay the price as Parwinder gets a clear shot on the goal on the counter but sprays it wide. UPW survive

Delhi Waveriders seem to be sticking to their plan of playing on the counter and letting Uttar Pradesh keeping their shape

Aggressive start from Delhi Waveriders as they move forward and a circle entry requires a stunning intervention from Sreejesh to keep UP safe

Arthur van Doren moves forward but slips and Delhi try to move for a counter. Chinglesana intercepts

Five minutes to half time and we are all square here in Delhi. Uttar Pradesh Wizards have enjoyed the better of exchanges in the second quarter.

GOOOOOOOOOAALLLLLLLLLLLL Peillat scores and it is 1-1

SAVED but Uttar Pradesh Wizards get a penalty stroke.

VR Raghunath calls for a referral and wants a PC. GETS IT

Uttar Pradesh reply immediately and they win a penalty corner but it is miscontrolled. Poor

This is quite intelligent from Rupinder Pal Singh as he manages to get it straight through the legs of Sreejesh. LOVELY drag flick

GOOOOOOOOALLLLLLLLLL Rupinder Pal Singh scores and Delhi Waveriders lead 1-0

A bit of a lull in the game here is broken by Justin Reid-Ross' surge forward and the cut back results in a PC for DWR

The midfield of Uttar Pradesh Wizards has not been able to link up with Ramandeep and Akashdeep.

UP Wizards, in an attempt to have men behind the ball, are giving too much possession to Delhi.

UP Wizards need to try and control the midfield here, something they have not been able to do, given their setup.

Delhi Waveriders have been really direct today and that has kept UP Wizards on the check.

Quarter 2 begins

QUARTER 1 comes to an end and it is Uttar Pradesh Wizards 0-0 Delhi Waveriders

SAVED!! Mandeep manages to find himself on the end of a pass played on the counter and he gets a shot away but Sreejesh is up to it.

A period of pressure from UP Wizards sees Raghunath take a shot from outside the circle but trying for a deflection. Vanasch is up to the tast
