Re: Asian Games Hockey
5-0 win over Thailand isn't great. One positive thing is that Rani Rampal played after sitting out previous couple of games. We'll need her in the semi final.

Malayasia lost to Japan 1-3 and China win 15-0 over Hong Kong.sameerph wrote: ↑Mon Aug 27, 2018 8:46 am Ok, good second half which will keep their confidence high going into the SF.
Our semi final opponents not yet decided. Japan is topping the other group. Malaysia and China are fighting it out for second spot. Malaysia is at 7 points and China at 4 but Malaysia plays their final match against Japan today while China plays Hong Kong. So, if as expected Japan beats Malaysia and China beats Hongkong it will come down to goal difference. Malaysia is at +19 now and China at +7. So, China will need a big 10 goal or so win against Hongkong to get it up.
In other scenario, if Malaysia beats Japan it will top the group and we will face Japan.
I prefer Malaysia over Japan or China. We will know by tonight when those 2 matches will get done;
So, it is China who we are going to meet in the SF tomorrow. Japan vs. Korea in the other SF.
Re: Asian Games Hockey
Yesss. 1-0 win over China in the semis. Excellent stuff. We dominated but just couldn't score. Now, one more strong showing against Japan needed

Re: Asian Games Hockey
Chak de India! Great job by the women in making the final. Reminds me of the win in the Asian Champions trophy final against China that I witnessed with my family a couple of years ago in Singapore.
Re: Asian Games Hockey
It was an impressive performance...apart from the finishing. We dominated the game and it was good to see the composure after taking the lead. Usually our teams panic and end up conceding in the last few minutes. Lots of hard running and the press form our forwards created a lot of turnovers and basic errors from the Chinese.
Japan are a tough team and it will be a close match, but main thing is not to concede an early goal. If we can create enough PCs, Gurjit could be our main threat.

Re: Asian Games Hockey
We are playing some dumb hockey against Malaysia. The defenders are utterly crap today and our PCs are useless. I can see Malaysia scoring off the many PCs we will gift away.
Really crazy unforced errors from Amit, Rupinder Pal and Manpreet have resulted in 3 PCs conceded in Q1. 0-0
Decided not to watch as that usually helps our team

Re: Asian Games Hockey
Goalless at half time. We started well but after that that our level dropped and Malaysia are looking dangerous on counter attack. Towards the end of the first half, we started attacking better again. They have to keep it up.
