Pakistan Hockey Team has failed to maintain his winning start as Netherlands rise 4-1
LAHORE (ONLINE) - Pakistan Hockey Team has failed to maintain his winning start as Netherlands rise 4-1 on second test at Breda on Wednesday.
According to the information received here, the new-look national side failed to repeat the feat as this time the tough European side was fully prepared to counter their attacks and exploit weaknesses.
The green-shirts on Tuesday launched their Europe tour on a winning note recording an upset 5-3 win over World No.4 Netherlands in the first Test.
Pakistan took lead in the first quarter when Abdul Manan netted a magnificent goal with the help of short-corner. But afterwards, despite putting up a gallant show the young Pakistan side could not plug in loopholes and the hosts took full advantage of that.
The Netherlands equalised the match just before the end of the first half. In the third quarter, they scored another goal to make it 2-1. Then, in the fourth quarter, the Netherlands added two more goals to ensure their win.
The Pakistan team will hold a practice session in Belgium and will play their only match against Belgium.
