The freekick goes over the crossbar. 

15:53 (GMT)7 AUG 2018

Freekick to Yemen close to India's penalty box.

WHAT A SAVE! Niraj Kumar, who has been India's best player since their third goal gets down quickly to deny the Yemen forward a clear coal. Cat-like reflexes shown by Kumar to keep his clean sheet intact.

Little less than ten minutes to go in the half. Nothing much has happened since India's third goal. 

15:38 (GMT)7 AUG 2018
