IND vs ENG Highlights, FIH World Cup 2026: India's trophy dreams stay alive. They will become part of the eight teams that will contest for the trophy in the next round. England will now head to classification groups. There wasn't a single parameter in which India were not beaten today. Salima Tete, the skipper, says the team's defence was good. She appears very happy. Australia and the Netherlands await them in the next phase.

IND vs ENG LIVE Score, FIH World Cup 2026: Can India survive these five minutes? If they do, they will be through to the next round. If they don't, classification matches await them. As simple as that.

IND vs ENG LIVE Score, FIH World Cup 2026: England earn a PC. India review but they are turned down. Luckily, England waste another. England also go for a review and they are successful. Another PC. Another miss. What the hell is going on?! So many misses. India really on the backfoot.

IND vs ENG LIVE Score, FIH World Cup 2026: England coach Ralph said at the second break that they would like to get better on the ball. And that's just what they have done. India in trouble. However, if they can resist another few minutes, they will be through to the next round. India have been very disappointing today, when all is said and done.

IND vs ENG LIVE Score, FIH World Cup 2026: And England earn a PC. India in trouble. Balls his the foot. Another PC. Another miss. Goalmouth melee and one more PC given. Another miss. What a relief! Indian goalkeeper has been fantastic. Meanwhile, Ishika will be out for a few minutes for a foul.

One more PC missed by England. Good defence work from Team India. 0-0 after the third quarter. It's a very short break

IND vs ENG LIVE Score, FIH World Cup 2026: Of the first two quarters. Both teams are a bit defensive. Which is understandable. Any goals at this stage can prove to be costly. Defence becomes priority. England earn a PC in the meantime but again nothing comes of i

IND vs ENG LIVE Score, FIH World Cup 2026: India have been on the backfoot in this quarter. It's going to be a long break. This has been totally England's quarter. India couldn't keep up their first-quarter intensity. They are lucky they have not conceded any goals.

IND vs ENG LIVE Score, FIH World Cup 2026: Salima Tete's reverse shot is stopped by England goalkeeper. That was a good opportunity. Could have been a better angle though. And shortly after India miss another PC. England counterattack and earn a PC. Nothing comes of it.

There is one more for England as the ball hits the foot of an Indian player in the box. Another one given after a foul! Another miss. Both teams have been extremely wasteful today.

IND vs ENG LIVE Score, FIH World Cup 2026: Who is going to break the deadlock? England after being clueless in the first few minutes of the first quarter are looking good in the second quarter. This is not good news for Team India but then they have only themselves to blame. They should have been up by two goals at least. And just as we wrote that, they missed another close opportunity.

IND vs ENG LIVE Score, FIH World Cup 2026: After a player is sent off for a foul. For a brief period though. Can India make the most of it? They can't. First quarter comes to an end. It's 0-0. They wasted three PCs in the quarter. England also wasted one. India the better team for sure but wasteful.

IND vs ENG LIVE Score, FIH World Cup 2026: It's Deepika the culprit. Wide of the target again. And shortly after England win their first PC. Let's see what happens. Guess what? They miss it too. Good defence work from Jyoti. Shortly after Owsley missed a sitter. She had the entire goal to herself, in a manner of speaking, but she missed the target.

IND vs ENG LIVE Score, FIH World Cup 2026: India wasted the penalty corner but to their credit they have controlled the game so far. Remember, India need a point but England will have to win to advance to the next stage. Another penalty for India at 08:10 of the first quarter. It has started raining by the way. Navneet misses another chance. Second miss, this time it was wide of the target.

IND vs ENG LIVE Score, FIH World Cup 2026: It kicks off in Amstelveen. Navneet's performance is going to be key for Team India. India gets first penalty corner after an England save. Goal disallowed. The shot hit an Indian player before it went in.

IND vs ENG LIVE Score, FIH World Cup 2026: First England and then India. The new jersey is actually looking good. Former hockey player Viren Rasquinha was quite upset at the change but if truth be told, this new colour is equally appealing.

IND vs ENG LIVE Score, FIH World Cup 2026: Sjoerd Marijne says they want to win the game. That's all there is to it. He is not eyeing one point, he is eyeing all three points.

IND vs ENG LIVE Score, FIH World Cup 2026: China, current leaders, have a goal difference of 6. It's 5 for India. So if India wins this game, say by 2-0, they will displace their neighbours at the top. Basically, if England Women score two goals, India need to score 4 to displace China. If the goal difference stays level, in that case India need to score three or more goals to take over China's total goals. They have scored 11; India have scored 8. As simple as that.
