Deepika Sehrawat celebrates her goal with her teammates.
India have a golden chance now as they have earned back-to-back penalty corners with China having no goalkeeper now as they pulled away their goalkeeper. There's very little time on the clock and India made it count with another goal.
IND 3-0 CHI
We are less than 3 minutes away from the end of the match and China are throwing everything on the line to get something out of this game.
China almost reduced the gap with a brilliant shot, but fortunately for India, Bicchu Devi's quick thinking saved India from holding onto their 2-goal lead.
China look more determined now with less than 10 minutes left on the clock. They will be aiming to at least draw the match as they have scored 3 more goals than India so far in this tournament.
That was an intense few seconds for India as a large number of Indian players crowded the China dee and almost scored the third goal a few times but then conceded a foul.
The 4th quarter is underway.
India have been constant in the 3rd quarter and they have been successful at it. China will be lamenting this quarter as they end it with 2-goals down.
IND 2-0 CHI
China have asked for a review as they believe that the ball touched one of the Indian defenders' leg. After checking multiple times, the video referee has said that the ball was clear and China will lose one of their referrals and India also win a free-hit. It does not look like that China are having much of a good time.

Salima Tete celebrates her goal with her teammates.
India are looking more charged up after the goal and they've been constantly inside the China dee and this time captain Salima Tete scores the second goal for India.
IND 2-0 CHI

Sangita Kumari and her teammates celebrate after breaking the deadlock.
What a chance and what a shot by India's Sangita Kumari. India take a screamer of a shot, takes a deflection by Sangita Kumari who just directs the ball and it goes inside. The deadlock is broken and India are in lead.
IND 1-0 CHI
The second half begins.
Another amazing chance gone from India's hand. They have been at the helm of this game in these last few minutes of the 2nd quarter. However, the first half ends and the match still remains goalless.
IND 0-0 CHI
Another penalty corner for the Indian team and it was a close one but close is as far as it went with none of the teams having been able to convert any chances yet.
Even though China have not created as much attacks as the Indian team so far, still, they have been threatening at times and are playing just as smart as the home team, so it's a good thing that the Indian defense has also been working tremendously well so far.
India find a chance to move inside the China dee and earn a penalty corner as well. However, China defense has been absolutely solid and it seems nothing can penetrate. India will have to get creative to score a goal against this team.
India started this quarter with early push but China took over after a while with constant pressure on the defending champions. So far, China have more possession of the ball and seem to be trying to slow down the game.
The second quarter begins and India start with early push.
First quarter ends with the score still reading 0-0.
Now China have a penalty corner and they waste their chance as well.
Less than 2 minutes left on the clock for the 1st quarter to end and both teams are still running threateningly at each other with no goals scored.
This has been a fast and intense match, to say the least. It's almost impossible to take our eyes away at any moment. Both teams are taking every chance they are getting to move inside the opponent's dee and they're succeeding. Fortunately for the defending champions, they've been spending more time inside the China dee.
What a chance! And it has to sting with almost only the goalkeeper to beat, India fail to score their first goal against these giants. They need to make these amazing chances count or China definitely will.
It should come as a positive news for the Indian fans that so far in these first five minutes of the game, India are attacking for the most part.
What a beginning for India as they back to back two penalty corners within first minute of the game. The news would only have been made better if they could only convert any of those two but both went in vain.
India's attacking flair has been a highlight, and they now sit second in the standings with nine points, trailing China only on goal difference (21 for China compared to India's 18). China, the reigning Olympic silver medallists, have also been in fine form, winning all three of their matches.
In their last outing, they overcame a resilient Japan side with a 2-1 victory. Known for their tactical discipline and quick counterattacks, the Chinese team poses a significant challenge to India's defence and midfield. India's chief coach Harendra Singh has emphasized the importance of maintaining team structure and effective ball transitions from defence to attack.
The Indian strikers, who have enjoyed relative freedom against weaker opponents, will face a sterner test against China's organised backline. Singh praised his team's cohesion in the match against Thailand and stressed the need for similar discipline to overcome China.
This clash also serves as a preview of potential semifinal or final matchups, as both teams are virtually assured of progressing to the next stage. India's midfield and defence will have to be vigilant against China's nimble-footed forwards, while the Indian attack must capitalize on opportunities without rushing.
