In an exciting encounter, the German hockey men beat India 2-1 in Rotterdam with two penalty corners and a solid defense.
The HONAMAS started the first quarter with commitment and tried to control the game. However, the game was very disjointed at the beginning and was characterized by forward ball losses on both sides.
At the beginning of the second quarter, the Indian opponents repeatedly showed their technical sophistication and had the first chance to score in the 20th minute after a remarkable offensive performance. However, the German defense was able to clear a cross from a tight angle. In the 25th minute, the German team had a double chance. After winning the ball deep, Malte Hellwig grabbed the ball, dribbled all over the field and, after a one-two with Paul Kaufmann, came to a demanding finish, which the Indian keeper Shashikumar cleared forward and Thies Prinz also failed with his follow-up shot at the keeper.
