India were reduced to 10 men after Amit Rohidas was shown a red card for raising his stick against a Great Britain player.

Veteran custodian PR Sreejesh, playing his last international tournament, stood like a rock in front of the Indian goal, making saves after saves.

Down by a man, it was India who took the lead through Harmanpreet Singh in the 22nd minute from a penalty corner before Great Britain drew level through Lee Morton from a field effort in the 27th minute.

Once Rohidas, a key defender and India's first rusher was given the controversial marching order, Great Britain attacked in numbers, constantly trying to take advantage of the one-man lead.

Meanwhile, Tokyo Olympics bronze medallist Lovlina Borgohain lost her quarterfinal bout and knocked out of the tournament by China's Li Qian, while in badminton men's singles event, Lakshya Sen lost his semifinals match against Denmark's Viktor Axelsen and will now play for the bronze medal.
