Even after India's hard-fight, the scores didn't take a turn only because of Curacao's class on the field. The team was good in its plans, analyzing the opponents early on. With the superiority in hand, Curacao did not blindly attack right from the start. They kept hold of possession in the initial stages and made clinical passes.

The goals they scored were chances created out of faults. While the first half for them was all about attacking and troubling the Indian defense, they stayed sensible in not losing out the lead in the second half. Curacao was on caution, but India's poor finishing too acted as an aid.

The game was a good example and experience for the Indian side. Curacao had a number of players with experience in European leagues, which increased their quality. Under Remko Bicentini, the team put up a good performance and was fair enough to earn a place in the cup final.
