The game ended in a nail-biting fashion, with both teams locked at 1-1 after four quarters of play. It was a fierce contest with plenty of action, showcasing the determination of both sides to gain an upper hand.

India took the lead in the 22nd minute thanks to a penalty corner converted by their captain, Harmanpreet Singh, marking his seventh goal of the tournament. However, Great Britain quickly responded, with Lee Morton finding the back of the net to equalize just five minutes later.

Things took a turn for India when Amit Rohidas received a red card in the second quarter, forcing the team to play with just ten players. Despite this setback, the Indian team refused to back down, displaying commendable resilience and teamwork throughout the match.
