Women's Asian Champions Trophy 2018, Final: India vs South Korea, Live Match Updates

India dominated the first three games against Japan, China, and Malaysia, but met their match in hosts Korea. India were unfortunate to lose the plot in the final and simply did not look to be at their best physically. All is not lost as they win silver with Sjoerd Marijne at the helm after 8 months. This is Subhashish, Goodbye for now!!!!!

In fact, India never looked like scoring a single time in the final two quarters and, if anything, are lucky to have lost by just a single goal. India win silver. Korea win gold for the third time.

The Indians were well and truly outplayed today. They looked to be in the hunt in the first two quarters, but post that, were unable to match the pace of the Koreans. The Indians looked a wee-bit fatigued for the first time in the tournament and were not as sharp as the Koreans.

FINAL SCORE: INDIA 0 - KOREA 1

59' The Indians unable to penetrate the Korean defence. Looks to be all over.

No PC. India take their goalie off!!!!

The ball looks to have hit a Korean foot. What will the decision be????

58' Two minutes to go. India appeal for a PC.

55' The Koreans crowding the defence even more. IS IT ALL OVER FOR INDIA????

54' The Indian players look jaded, unable to match the pace of the Koreans in midfield.

53' Seven minutes on the clock. The signs DO NOT look too good for the Indians.

51' India still unable to enter the Korean 25-yard line. Which of the players on the pitch can act as the inspiration and the live-wire????

49' Time is the enemy for India as they are unable to manufacture a single potent move. India have to step up and do so fast.

47' The Koreans stealing the ball at will. The Indian players look out of their depths totally!!!

The silver lining AND the saving grace for India is that they trail by 1 goal and not 4 which could easily have been the case. Luck has favored India so far. Can they ride on their luck and equalize????

END OF Q3: INDIA 0 - KOREA 1

44' RELENTLESS PRESSURE FROM THE KOREANS!!! INDIA ARE WILTING UNDER PRESSURE!!!

SAVITA SAVES!!!!! INDIA LIVE ON!!!!

43' PC to Korea!!

42' The Indians SEEM TO HAVE NO OPTION BUT TO PLAY LONG BALLS!!!! And it isnt helping!!!!

41' Korea could EASILY HAVE SCORED A COUPLE MORE!!!!!! What can the Indians do to stem the flow of attacks???

40' INDIA HAVE LOST THEIR WAY AND LIVING DANGEROUSLY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

37' Great ball by Korea into the Indian circle. The Indian defence beaten all ends up!!!!! Lucky escape as the Koreans unable to get a shot on goal!!!!!

34' India look shaky and flustered. Gift the ball away to the Koreans outside their own circle!!!!!!

33' Free hit to India outside the Korean 25. Little the Indians can do to penetrate the crowded defence.

32' Danger for India RIGHT AWAY!!!! The Koreans enter the Indian circle and look menacing!!!!

What can India do differently in the second half apart from trying long balls. India unable to capitalize on their PCs thus far.

Sjoerd Marijne SIMPLY HAS TO APPLY ALL HIS SKILLS AND HIS WITS TO COUNTER THE KOREANS. THE CURRENT APPROACH IS NOT WORKING!!!

END OF HALF TIME: INDIA 0 - SOUTH KOREA 1

28' The Indians losing their way just a bit as Korea look to have the upper hand!!! Can India score????

26' THE INDIANS HAVE A LUCKY ESCAPE AFTER THE KOREANS COUNTER AFTER STEALING THE BALL!!!!!!

LEE Youngsil scores for Korea to break the deadlock

Brillaint field goal by the South Koreans.

GOAALLLLLLLLLLLL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

23' The Indians trying long balls into the circle repeatedly but the result is much the same each time. The strikers unable to latch on!!!

17' The Indians remain calm in defence and the danger is averted. The Indians now outside the Korean 25. Neha Goyal's cross fails to find the intended target.

16' DANGER FOR INDIA as the Korean girls enter the circle.

An uncanny similarity to yesterday's match. The game starting with both sides looking to attack and then slowing down as Korea tighten up and so do India. Does Sjoerd Marijne have a new trick up his sleeve to surprise the Koreans??

END OF Q1: INDIA 0- SOUTH KOREA 0

14' BRILLIANT LONG BALL INTO THE KOREAN CIRCLE. The Indian strikers unable to connect.

13' The Indians girls do EXACTLY the same with a long ball into the Korean circle. The result too is EXACTLY the same!!!

12' The pace of the game has slowed down considerably. The Koreans try a long ball into the Indian circle but the shot is wide and cannot find any Korean shirts.

10' The Korean girls spreading out into their marking positions just as they did yesterday. The Indians will find it difficult to advance.

8' The Koreans passing the ball around in their own half. Willing to sit back and wait for the Indians to falter.

6' The Indian strikers unable to connect. Golden chance lost for India.
