Its all right .Competitions like this are a good opportunity to test young players . These players got to play against international teams and it must be a good learning experience for them.The way they played against superior Pak team and held them for 1-0 margin, is really commendable. Unlike Olympic ,WC ,and Asian games , SAF games doesn't hold much significance in field hockey circuit.

Pakistan Hockey Team players celebrate their win against India after the final match of Hockey at the South Asian Games in Guwahati on February 12, 2016


GUWAHATI: Pakistan beat India 1-0 to win gold in the hockey event of the 12th South Asian Games in Guwahati on Friday.

Awais-ur-Rehman scored the decisive goal at the end of first-half as Pakistan successfully completed hat-trick of SAG hockey titles.

The match, played out in front of a near-capacity crowd at the Moullanna Tayebullah Stadium, saw both teams starting cautiously before the Greenshirts upped the ante and broke through the Indian defence.

Rehman’s strike in the added time of the first half pushed Mohammad Irfan’s side to attack even more but found a strong wall in Indian goalkeeper Vikas Dahiya.

It was the fourth time the two arch-rivals were clashing in the final of men’s hockey at the regional extravaganza.

Pakistan beat India in both the 2004 and 2010 finals in Colombo and Dhaka, respectively, while India won the gold in 1995 in Madras.
