This time it is Ghosal with a direction-changing drop that catches Yow off guard. 9-9 now. A let is given while Ghosal believes he had a good shot of winning the point. Replay. Once again Yow targets the left corner and once again Ghosal is unable to get to it. Set point for Yow. The Malaysian converts it!

Asian Games LIVE: Hockey

India have been breaching the Chinese defence time and again now but unfortunately not going through with a goal. A PC went just wide of the goal. Now a field goal opportunity goes begging with India getting a shot on but it strikes the player's foot instead. On the resulting PC, India go for a variation and the final shot is once again lifted. Once again, the goal doesn't count

14:38 (IST)

Asian Games LIVE: Hockey

With a minute to go, India win a PC and it has been poorly trapped. India finally get a shot on the goal but it has taken a Chinese foot on the way and India have another PC.

On the second straight PC, India score but the hit is high and hits the net, rather than ringing the board. Had it been a dragflick, it would have been allowed. India earn another PC in the aftermath but nothing comes from it this time

China take a 2-0 lead with five minutes left in the third quarter. Once again, they've converted a PC and India have been touch slow to react in defense. Zou Meirong with the goal and the task gets bigger for India
