India, too, had a lively first quarter, but after that they lost steam. In the last two quarters, Salima Tete’s women were totally on the defensive, but thankfully, despite the English aggression, they were lucky not to concede a goal. However, today it’s going to be a really tough game as they are up against the WC winners from the last three editions.

India W vs Netherlands W LIVE Score: 30 minutes over!
India W vs Netherlands W LIVE Score: India have done well all in all so far. Their defence has kept the home side at bay but despite that the Dutch are in the lead. Narrow though it is. But to bolster their semis chances India need to get something out of this game and for that they need to score goals. Defence alone won't take them anywhere.
