We were lucky to drew this match with Africans ... Again we showed patchy performance ... We were struggling in defence but most worrying part was our lack of ability of finding finisher in forward-line ... We had numerous opportunities but failed to convert those ... Other hand South Africa take advantage of mistakes from our defense ... After South Africa scored their 3rd goal we were dominating major part of the match but we waited until Shivendra showed quick-hands from close range just before 5 mins of hooter ... With this draw we finished 4th position with 4 pts same like South Africa but our goal average is much better from them ... Australia and England moved to semi-final as winner and runnerup of the group.
