India controlled the game in the initial minutes and strived hard to score the opening goal of the match, but it was Great Britain who got the initial lead when Ashley Jackson sounded the plank in the dying minutes of the first half.<\/p>\n

India came back strongly after the change of ends and got the equalizer from Shivendra Singh <\/a>in the 42nd minute. In the 52nd minute, India\u2019s Olympic qualifiers hero, Sandeep Singh <\/a>put India in front for the first time in the match.
