    Wow, what a game and what a climax! This is what the Czech team needed at the home World Championship. Lots of pressure and chances throughout the game, excellent performance by Deep Toor, then Chima scored for India with less than five minutes to go. The Czechs didn't give up, scored twice with some lucky bounces here and there and finished with an empty-netter.

    Best players:
    Pavel Kubes (CZE)
    Deep Toor (IND) (20:53:44)

    Sandhu shoots from red line. Heczko gets a piece of it with his left pad.
     
    43:50
    The Czechs now hit the post behind Toor! Third would be a nail into the coffin if going in.

    JK Gill was called off side. The atmosphere inside Tipsport arena is electrifying right now.

    Goal for Team Czech Republic!
    Right after the face off, the Czechs threw the ball on net. It went past Toor behind the goal line from where JAN BILY somehow managed to put it in off Toor's right pad to make it 2-1. The Czechs have the momentum now, but still have three minutes of game in front of them. Assisted by Pavel Kubes.
    41:46 Wróbel (CZE) - 1:1
     
    41:46
    Goal for Team Czech Republic!
    Scorer is TOMAS WROBEL. The goal was reviewed and it is allowed! Toor tried to reach for the ball in the air, but couldn't do so and Tomas Wrobel found it in front of him on the crease. He put it in before one of the Indians managed to take it out!
     
    41:10
    Penalty for India (Smiter Kaila – 2 min., Holding an Opponent).
    40:52 Chima (IND) - 0:1
     
    40:52
    Goal for Team India!
    Nice play by the Indians in the offensive zone. Heczko made a save on shot from his right hand side, but only stopped the ball in front of him where PAUL CHIMA took over. He tapped it in through five hole and set his team upfront with only 4 minutes to go! Assisted by JK Gill.
     
    39:58
    Heczko made the save, then Bily could have finish a 2 on 1 situation with a one timer from the slot but missed the goal!
     
    39:32
    Benedikt snaps it wide from red line. Now India goes into attack.
