Coming into the tournament after securing a second successive bronze at the Olympics, India looked the more enterprising side as they grabbed the opportunities up front and was rock solid in defence to emerge winners.

Just two minutes after resumption, Abhishek found the back of the net with a spectacular reverse hit. India will play Japan in their second pool one match on Monday.
