Hockey World Cup LIVE: India to battle NewZealand at 7 PM in Hockey WC Crossover, Malaysia face Spain in battle for Quarter-final spots – Follow LIVE Updates
After failing to get the direct quarterfinal spot, India Hockey Team faces NewZealand in Crossover. It is a knockout match and hence, Harmanpreet Singh & Co are in a do-or-die situation. A below-par show against debutants Wales denied them a direct quarterfinal berth. Now, India must address their attacking woes against a tricky Kiwi side for a last-eight spot on Sunday.
India needed to beat Wales — eight places below them in world rankings — by eight goals to top Pool D and seal the direct quarterfinals slot. But the home side could only notch up a 4-2 win on Thursday. One reason was poor finishing while the other one was poor defence in the third quarter.
Good luck, team! 🤝 See you on the field tomorrow! 🏑#IndiaKaGame #HockeyIndia #HWC2023 #StarsBecomeLegends #HockeyWorldCup #INDvsNZL @CMO_Odisha @sports_odisha @IndiaSports @Media_SAI @BlackSticks pic.twitter.com/49J1HlaE6X
