Sultan Cup Hockey Tournament Result: India Lose to Germany

It was a disgraceful match for Indian hockey junior team as they lost 2-3 to Germany. During the summit clash in the Sultan of Johar Cup hockey tournament here on Sunday, Indian players made some ridiculous mistakes and lost the match. They played very well for outing in league stages as the score that time was 3-1, but failed to strike during the later part.

They finished the match as runners-up. In 11 minutes of game, Germany's players just changed the overall look of it. Jonas Gomoll from Germany team led the game with his first penalty corner.

During the 24th minute of the game, Satbir Singh played a field goal, due to which Indians players drew parity. In the following five minutes of the play, India got two excellent opportunities to win ahead but unluckily they lost. They missed the first chance because German custodian Victor denied them and during the second occasion, their luck did not support them.

Victor played a wonderful role by saving India's first penalty corner. At the same time, Akashdeep was a bit unlucky to have hit the German post in the 29th minute.

As far as Germany team is concerned, they did not waste a single opportunity that came their way to win. Joshua Delarber made 2-1 in the 30th minute from a penalty corner and won.
