After failing to make the semis in ACT 2023, Pakistan have shown glimpses of their old self in 2024. They finished second in the group stage, and sealed a great comeback win in the third place match.

Pakistan would've felt that they underdelivered by losing to China in the semi-final. This result will ease their nerves, and an emphatic comeback shows how good they are. This is a team that dragged India very close as well.

Korea have fought hard today. They led for large parts of the match, and held a 1-0 lead at half-time. Pakistan ran rampant in the second half, but Korea still tried to fightback and equalised 2-2.

A respectable fourth spot for Korea in Asian Champions Trophy 2024.

A superb comeback by Pakistan, scoring five goals in the second half, and they take a deserved third place. Two goals each by Hannan Shahid and Sufyan Khan, and one by Rooman, to make it a brilliant day.

FT: PAK 5-2 KOR

Pakistan are three minutes away from celebration. It has been an emphatic comeback, as they have netted five goals in the second half. Hannan Shahid and Sufyan Khan have 2 goals each.

Q4 13' PAK 5-2 KOR

Another goal for Hannan Shahid. Pakistan have surely sealed it now. They are heading to the third spot in ACT 2024. Fabulous, fabulous comeback.

Q3 9' PAK 5-2 KOR

Seven more minutes to go in the fourth and final quarter. Korea need a big comeback, otherwise Pakistan will seal third spot in the Asian Champions Trophy 2024.

Q4 8' PAK 4-2 KOR

It's that man again! Sufyan Khan! Another perfect shot from a penalty corner, and Pakistan have turned their weakness into a strength in the second half. The bronze medal is looking close now.

Q4 4' PAK 4-2 KOR

Korea unleash a venomous shot, courtesy of their captain Lee Jungjun, but a great save by the Pakistan goalkeeper Abdullah.

Q4 4' PAK 3-2 KOR

We are underway in the fourth quarter. The third quarter was... phew! Unbelievable stuff by Pakistan to take the lead, with goals from Sufyan Khan, Hannan Shahid and Rooman. 

Now then, can they hold on in the final quarter?

Q4 3' PAK 3-2 KOR

Another goal for Pakistan! They are back in the lead. A superb long pass by Waheed Rana, Ahmad Nadeem puts it across goal and midfielder Rooman gets his stick on to it last, to score! What a game, brilliant stuff.

Q3 15' PAK 3-2 KOR

This game has gone from 0 to 100 in a flash. From 1-0 at the start of the third quarter, all of a sudden the game is 2-2. And as I say that, another good chance for Pakistan, but no goal! Wow.

Q3 12' PAK 2-2 KOR

Stunning third quarter we're having here. Korea have equalised. Yang Ji-hun with his ninth goal of the tournament, the top scorer leaves his mark on the bronze medal game. 

What a contest!

Q3 10' PAK 2-2 KOR

Pakistan have taken the lead! Dramatic turn-around. Right after the restart, Pakistan leap on another attack and Hannan Shahid gives Pakistan the lead. Utterly incredible scenes!

Q3 9' PAK 2-1 KOR

Finally! The penalty corner is converted. A brilliant finish by Sufyan Khan and Pakistan are back in it.

Q3 8' PAK 1-1 KOR

Pakistan continue to penetrate the Korean defence, but somehow are unable to convert. Great chance, but the Korean keeper saves, and Pakistan are unable to convert the rebound either. It's a PC now.

Q3 9' PAK 0-1 KOR 

That's a fourth PC now squandered by Pakistan. Once again, they are unable to release a firm shot at goal, and Korea can breathe a sigh of relief.

Q3 9' PAK 0-1 KOR

Pakistan are applying a calmer approach in the second half. They are exchanging passes between the defence and midfield, and slowly trying to orchestrate their build-up.

Q3 6' PAK 0-1 KOR

We are back! The third quarter is on. Pakistan desperately need the equaliser, as they trail Korea by a goal. They are attacking from left to right now.

Q3 1' PAK 0-1 KOR

The story of the match has been Pakistan creating many chances in the Korean circle, but not maanging to get a goal. They've had more circle entires than Korea, and also 3-0 in PCs earned. Yet, no goal.

HT: PAK 0-1 KOR

That's HALF-TIME. Pakistan trail by one goal, after Korean captain Lee Jungjun scored early in the second quarter. Can the men in green make a comeback? Stay tuned to the live coverage.

HT: PAK 0-1 KOR

Korea have taken more control of the game as the second quarter has wore on. We are into the final minute of the second quarter, and Pakistan are still a goal down.

Q2 15' PAK 0-1 KOR

Pakistan captain Ammad Butt has been given a firm warning by the referee, for constant appealing to every decision. It's a warning to the entire team, given through the captain.

Q2 11' PAK 0-1 KOR

Pakistan continue to dominate offensive sequences, but just cannot get the ball in the net. The Korean defence holding strong. Many situations where Korea scramble to defend, but Pakistan cannot score.

Q2 8' PAK 0-1 KOR

Pakistan win another penalty corner. They go from defence to offence in a flash, and manage to win the PC. Another chance, can they finally convert?

Q2 6' PAK 0-1 KOR

Korea give away a penalty corner right after scoring, but Pakistan are unable to capitalize. It stays 1-0 in favour of Korea.

Q2 3' PAK 0-1 KOR

The Korean captain scores! Brilliant piece of skill by Lee Jungjun, and he slams it home. Korea lead, Pakistan trail at the start of the second quarter.

Q2 1' PAK 0-1 KOR

Sufyan Khan receives a green card, and Pakistan ends the quarter with a man less. 15 minutes where Pakistan looked the better team, but were unable to convert their chances.

Q1 15' PAK 0-0 KOR

Pakistan are unable to create a good chance from the penalty corner. Not well executed at all, and they don't even get a shot away. This quarter seems to be ending 0-0.

Q1 14' PAK 0-0 KOR

Amazing steal of possession by Pakistan, and Waheed Rana had a huge chance, but the Korean goalkeeper saves. However, it is a penalty corner.

Q1 14' PAK 0-0 KOR

Korea hitting back at Pakistan after the early Pak momentum. Few minutes of Korean dominance, but the Pakistan defence has held strong.

Q1 7' PAK 0-0 KOR

Fabulous run made down the right wing. From his own third to the opposition D. Driving surge forward doesn't lead to a goal, but positive start by the men in green.

Q1 4' PAK 0-0 KOR

The bronze medal match is underway! Pakistan are attacking from right to left, in their green and white kit. Korea are kitted in blue.

Pakistan are not starting with their top scorer Ahmad Nadeem. Shahid Hannan, who scored twice when these sides faced in the league stage, starts in the forward line.

Pakistan: Abdul Rehman, Ahmad Ajaz, Ali Ghazanfar, Butt Ammad (Captain), Hammadudin Muhammad, Hayat Zikriya, Khan Abdullah Ishtiaq (Goal Keeper), Khan Sufyan, Liaqat Arshad, Mahmood Abu, Nadeem Ahmad, Qadir Faisal, Rana Waheed Ashraf, Razzaq Salman, Rooman, Shahid Hannan, Shakeel Moin, Ur-rehman Muneeb (Goal Keeper)

South Korea: Bae Jongsuk, Bae Soung Min, Cheon Min Su, Hyun Jigwang, Jung Hyunho, Kim Hyeonhong, Kim Jaehan (Goal Keeper), Kim Junghoo, Kim Minkwon, Kim Sunghyun, Kong Yoonho, Lee Gangsan, Lee Hyeseung, Lee Jungjun (Captain), Oh Daewon (Goal Keeper), Oh Seyong, Park Cheoleon, Park Geonwoo, Sim Jaewon, Yang Jihun

In a mega upset, China stunned Pakistan 2-0 in the shootout to enter the final. However, Pakistan will have the opportunity to bow out of the tournament with a win. Hannan Shahid has been their go-to-man so far. Most of the attacking threat has come from him. Can he inspire them to a third place finish, only time will tell.

These two sides drew 2-2 in an enthralling contest during the league phase. This bronze medal is anyone's to take!

The Indian offence was too strong for the Korea, as they lost 4-1 in the other semi-final. However, Yang Ji-hun is the top scorer of ACT 2024 with eight goals, just one ahead of India's Harmanpreet.

We were close to getting a blockbuster India-Pakistan final, but Pakistan suffered heartbreak in the penalty shootout against China in the semi-final. Pakistan failed to score all four of their penalty attempts, as China won 2-0.
