The
Indian hockey team recently gave a stellar performance against Great Britain to
claim the bronze position in the Sultan Azlah Shah Cup hockey
tournament in Malaysia.
In
a closely contested match, India scored a 3-1 win against Britain. Indian
national hockey team carefully pieced together moves in the second half to
score three goals.
The
team, which included player of the tournament Sardar Singh, skipper
Bharat Chettri and star drag flicker Sandeep Singh, was
coached by Michael Nobbs. The team made a dramatic comeback after winning the
fourth match, signalling the readiness and perseverance of the hockey team.
Shivendra
Singh scored a brilliant goal drawing parity to India. Ten minutes later Sandeep Singh scored a penalty kick bringing another point to
India with the help of a drag flick. India’s victory was sealed when, on the
penultimate minute,Tushar Khadekar, scored a goal against Great Britain.
This
match was an example of what the Indian team is capable of. It is a sign that
the team is ready to face the Olympics.
Furthermore, a team like this coupled with the motivation and training from
their coach means that the team has been moulded into a formidable force, ready
to take on the Olympics and make India proud. We wish the Indian National
Hockey team all the best!
