But the team continued to play with a structured defence and tight passing, which ensured little room for Britain to counter attack or create chances to score. “We created enough chances and now we need to keep working on converting those chances but our defence stood strong through the match which was a good thing,” India chief coach, Sjoerd Marijne said. It was not until the 47th minute when skipper Rani created space in the circle, netting a powerful shot past Britain’s goalkeeper.
