However, India did well to soak up the pressure, with the likes of Jarmanpreet Singh, Manpreet Singh playing important roles for the hosts.

Shortly after, with two minutes left in the first half, India struck again, as Abhishek found the back of the net, after a block on Amit Rohidas’ shot fell in his path. At the half-time break, India led Ireland 3-0.

After the break, India came out of the blocks at good pace, and pushed the Ireland side back into their own half with a series of quick forays into the danger area. And on the 34th minute, India extended their lead further as Mandeep Singh set it up for Shamsher Singh, who finished it off from close range. Mandeep Singh along with Abhishek and Manpreet Singh were though not letting up and continued to attack. Ireland looked to fight back in the final moments of the third quarter, but India held out at went into the final break with the score at 4-0.
