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

QUARTER 4 underway

QUARTER 3 ends

Penalty Corner to UP Wizards and Raghunath's drag flick is well defended

SAVED!!! Akashdeep almost effects a goal there as he takes another reverse hit from the edge of the box but Vanasch saves

Uttar Pradesh Wizards have kept a lot of pressure on DWR here, winning the possession contest, but have not created a concrete chance

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

PEEEPPPPP!!! We are underway
