EXPLAINED: A field-player replacing goalkeeper in hockey

In the 56th minute, desperate to find the equalizer, India took their trusted custodian Sreejesh off the pitch to have an extra field-player in the form of attacker Gurjant Singh at their disposal. The move to bring an extra field-player into the attack did the trick for India, enabling a relentless attack on the Argentine circle and a video referral that gave India a penalty corner in the 59th minute. Skipper Harmanpreet Singh scored off it to earn India a point when all seemed lost.
