India are continuing their dominant form, looking once again irresistible. Also, it’s worth noting that this goal marks the captain's 200th goal for India

The first quarter concludes with India leading 2-0, the only goals scored so far. As we head into the second quarter, India remain in control, maintaining their domination. However, Korea has made a strong push, with an early entry into the circle and Gwang taking a shot from the right. Though it didn't tro🔥uble Karkera, it was indeedও a wakeup call for Harmanpreet's side. Will the Koreans manage to break through or will they follow a pattern similar to Malaysia's defeat? Let's see
