The 2nd half is already underway and a sense of urgency can be seen in the Indian side as they look to cut the deficit. However, in that quest they have given a penalty corner to Germany that is eventually saved by India.
We are into the final quarter of the game and Germany is still leading by 1-0. This is India's last chance to level the score while Germany will look to widen the gap further.
That's it, Germany strikes their 2nd goal in the 4th quarter and takes a decisive 2-0 lead. The match is now getting out of India's hands.

IND, who are placed in Group C, won their won 1st game against Namibia by 14-0. So, even if they lose this match, they have a good chance to qualify for the next round if they register a comprehensive win against Ireland in their last Group game.
