India Vs Argentina Highlights, Tokyo 2020 Olympics: India lose 1-2 in semifinal, to play Great Britain for bronze medal

That's all we have for you today. Thank you so much for joining me on this coverage. It's a tough pill to digest but we move on and hope that India now return home with two hockey bronze medals. We will be back tomorrow morning with Day 13 of the Olympics. See you there? See you there! Until then, it's goodnight. CIAO!

India will take on 2016 Olympic champions Great Britain in the bronze medal match on August 6.

Right after that, Argentina will play the Netherlands in the gold medal match.

As they say, what's meant for you will find its way to you sooner or later. And what's not, will simply not make its way to you. The Rani Rampal-led side had a shot history, had a chance to become the first women's team from the country to make the Olympic final but they were denied by the mighty Argentinians. Their captain Maria Noel Barrionuevo led from the front with a match-winning brace and side did what they do best; that is play compact, positional hockey. They bossed the mid-field and apart from a lukewarm start in the first half, they ruled the roost throughout

This is it! India go down 1-2

No PC for India and this should be it for India! 17 seconds to go!

India still can't build an attack. They get a free-hit but 30 seconds remain AND SUCCI SAVES IN THE FINAL 20 SECONDS. INDIA ASK FOR A PC! THIS IS GOING RIGHT DOWN TO THE WIRE. India asking for a danger ball off the pads of Succi. The ball was hit flat into the circle and Navneet had deflected the ball

An attack, a PC, a penalty stroke...India need a huge stroke of luck in the final 90 seconds

India need to build an attack quickly.

Trinchinetti crossing from the right side and Savita charges off her line to intercept and thwart the Argentinian attack

The last 5 minutes of this pulsating semifinal. Now or never for India

India, after attacking from the right, advance down the left and the pressure built over the last 5-6 minutes has resulted in the PC.

WHAT A SAVE! GURJIT KAUR ABSOLUTE BELTERS THE BALL INTO THE BOTTOM RIGHT CORNER BUT ARGENTINA GOALIE SUCCI DIVES ON TIME TO DENY INDIA THE EQUALISER

WHAT A SAVE! Monika and Navneet combine well down the left before the ball falls to Lalremsiami. Her shot from a tight angle inside the circle and near the left backline is saved just in time by Maria Belen Succi

Better from India. After holding possession in the centre, they look to attack down the inner right flank with a long ball but there is no Indian body to collect the pass. India need to push in with a higher number and try and penetrate the wall

Rani Rampal wins a free-hit right outside the circle on the right and then wins one more near the backline. Salima Tete looked to play the ball into the circle but the ball is cleared

Well, Argentina have persisted, have been relentless, and hence are reaping the benefit of it. But there's no denying that India are giving a great fight. They have showed some signs of improvement while attacking. Can they convert it into a goal?

Salima Tete's good stickwork on the left flank left the Argentinians in a spot of bother for a moment but she loses hold of the ball and a free-hit to Argentina

India are pressing hard now, showing a sense of urgency down the right but the Argentinians have down well to rotate the ball and steer it clear of danger

Neha gets a green card and she is out for a minimum of two minutes. India down to 10 players for now. She is back in the 42nd minute

That's what Argentina have done since the start of Q2. From bossing the midfield to using the flanks well, especially the left, the South American team have left no stone unturned in earning and deserving that lead.

Deep Ekka Grace commits a foot hold inside the circle after the ball was played in from the right. AND THAT IS STELLAR WORK DONE BY FIRST-RUSHER SALIMA TETE! But it's another PC for Argentina

AND THEY SCORE THIS TIME!!! The referee ask for a referral! It's all happening at the moment.

Here's what happened! Maria Noel Barrionuevo's drag-flick deflected into the goal after the ball hit the knee of Indian defender Sushila Chanu. The question is whether the shot was dangerous and....it wasn't. Argentina lead

Argentina have referred and they believe they should have a PC. Once again, like all of 2nd quarter, Albertarrio squares the ball from the left flank with a tomahawk and the ball hits Deep Grace Ekka's above the knee pad. UNSUCCESSFUL REVIEW! The video referee says there was no clear reason to change the on-field umpire's decision

India looked to build an attack from the right. An incoming Rani Rampal was played to by Gurjit Kaur but the Indian skipper fails to keep the ball inside the pitch. By her high standards, Rampal is having a quiet game so far

Right, then! We are back with the second half! Q1 belonged to India but Q2 was all Argentina. Who will score first in the second half? Push back by the Argentinians. A long scoop from the back by Albertarrio and India win the free-hit.

An exhausting first half comes to an end with the two teams tied 1-1. Gurjit Kaur scored the opener in Q1 and Argentina equalised through captain in Q2. What an intense half of hockey. India had a strong start but the way Argentina responded in the second quarter, with sheer relentless, it could bring bad news for India. However, the Indian defenders have thwarted every move so far and have done well to keep the scoreline at 1-1.

Neha attacks down the centre and then comes up against a wall of Argentinian bodies. She looks to play to Gurjit, who fails to carry the play on! This should be the last attack of this half
