The final whistle blows! India fall short by one goal as Argentina win the match 2-1 to enter the final. India women should keep their chin up, for it was a fabulous effort. They are still in medal contention and will play the bronze medal match against Great Britain on Friday.

Ever since India began pressing hard, they have appeared a lot more in control. And they have been rewarded for their aggression with a penalty corner. Takes the shot... and it's a tremendous save. India will have to wait! Full marks to the Argentinian defence.

Argentina kept mounting pressure on India with repeated penalty corners, and they finally convert it for a second time to take a 2-1 lead. India referred the decision, with the ball deflecting off Sushila Chanu, but replay confirmed it wasn't dangerous play. Captain Maria Noel strikes for the second time in the match. Argentina 2-1 India with 9 minutes to go before the final quarter.

Argentina has been putting tremendous pressure on the Indian defence but it has responded well. Having said that, not converting a PC when they had three of those almost back to back is something India would want to work on. They can press a little harder there.

India couldn't hold on to their early lead for long, as Maria Noel Barrionuevo, the Argentina captain scores to level things up. Meanwhile, three penalty corners in quick succession for India, but they haven't been able to make them count.

India's Anshu Malik, who had lost her opening bout in women's 57kg category, has qualified for the repechage rounds after her opponent reached the finals. Anshu will have a shot at bronze if she wins all her repechage matches in women's 57kg.

India are leading 1-0 at the end of the first quarters courtesey the Gurjit Kaur goal in the 2nd minute of the match.

The Indian women's team are leading 1-0 against Argentina in the women's hockey semifinal.

Deepak pushed out of the mat and it's Taylor 10-0. Now it's all over for Deepak, walked all over him, did Taylor. Deepak never got a chance there, complete technical superiority over the young Indian wrestler, once Taylor had his grip, he never let Deepak go. Deepak Punia now gets a chance at bronze

Ok, hearts in mouth, it's about to begin, Deepak Punia vs David Taylor for a place in the finals of the 86kg Freestyle for men

His opponent in the final, American David Taylor is not just the 2018 World Champion, but also beat the legendary Jordan Burroughs earlier this year. He's called 'magic man' for his ability to turn fights around, so Deepak has his task cut out. Perhaps we can start calling Ravi Dahiya magic man from now on

Deepak grew up just a few kilometres from Bajrang Punia, India's finest wrestler, and learnt a lot from him. Remember, Ravi Dahiya, Deepak and Bajrang are all from Chhatrasal Stadium in Delhi, in the news for all the wrong reasons after the stadium's icon and two-time Olympic medallist Sushil Kumar was charged with murder a few months back

Deepak Punia was on fire in 2018, winning the world juniors, then making the semifinal of the senior world champs the same year. He's had a good start to this year as well, with a silver at the Asian championships. Can the wrestler from Jhajjar in Haryana follow his friend and colleague Ravi Dahiya to the final?

What a comeback by India's Ravi Kumar. He was trailing 2-9 in the last 3 minutes but came storming back to win the bout by fall or a take down. Ravi was trailing 7-9 when the referee signalled for a victory by fall in the India's favour.

India wrestler Ravi Kumar ensures a medal, reaches Men's 57kg final by beating Nurislam Sanayev of Kazakhstan.

India's Ravi Kumar is leading 2-1 after the first three minutes. Important next three minutes coming up. The Indian needs more points to ensure a spot in the finals.
