Luckily for England because Nick Barker was out of his goal. Fine play there by Switzerland. This is Thompson, obstructed. Push to England. Oh, and a magnificent goal. The ball did go into the back of the goal because the ball was pushed form outside the circle. And it has to be pushed from inside. Good square ball, Woodbridge leaving it, for Thompson....back to Woodbridge for the shot...and it's a goal. Players moving round and there goes the shot....it was outside and put over the backline by an English stick but it doesn't matter it's a push out. Taken by Whittaker, on to Mackintosh and he's trying to find the right wing Thompson. Back to Mackintosh through the middle out to right, Mackintosh through the middle there's his shot...and it's there. England's seventh goal scored by Ian Mackintosh. This is Switzerland's sixth penalty corner this half, can they score from this one? Nichol with the shot.... stopped on the line, by Mackintosh. But he stopped it with his leg, so it is another penalty stroke. This is Nick barker who has the task of trying to save this. That ball is seven metres from the backline and he gets it into the back of the net for Switzerland's fourth goal. and England's defenders have to stay right behind the line, can't come off the line before the ball is flicked out. Souter stopped but there's the shot and it's in the back of the net."
