Hockey: Pak beat India by 4-1 in nine-a-side Super Series

Updated 24 minutes ago

PERTH: In the men's third place playoff, Pakistan saved the best for last to thrash arch-rivals India 4-1 and notch their first win of the four-day tournament of the inaugural International Super Series in Perth on Sunday.

Muhammad Waqas scored a double for Pakistan, who led 2-1 at half-time having capitalised on two short corners, while India scored through Rajpal Singh with just 10 seconds left in the half.

Another short corner conversion extended Pakistan's lead in the 17th minute as Fareed Ahmed was left with a simple tap-in at the far post, before Waqas's powerful strike in the 20th minute put the issue beyond doubt. (AFP)

Its a good addition to hockey format. New tactics will be evolved according to this format in coming months. But there is no match to hockey on a good grassy ground with five forwards up. Anyways Congrats to Pakistan team.

And we have the gold medal in Asian games.

Anyways a victory is a victory. And it is even better if it is against Bharat with a good margin. So stop gloating over what happened in the past and behave sensibly.
