The Indian men’s Hockey team, managed to
qualify for the Olympics after they beat France 8-1 in the final round of the
qualification tournament that was held in New Delhi. This was a big moment for
India as India has finally managed to qualify for the Olympics after many
decades.
Furthermore, the team did not want to repeat
what happened at the Beijing Olympics in 2008 where they missed the berth by a
very small margin. This fact only pushed the team more to win as they managed
to defeat France. The French team found it impossible to counter the Indian
team’s relentless shots. So much so, that both teams earned seven penalty
corners each.
However, players such as Sandeep Singh and SV
Sunil kept pushing against their opponents. This culminated into a match which
India won. This match has also ensured that the Indian men’s Hockey team goes
to the Olympics after a very long time.
