India beat Pakistan by 4-0 in Asian Hockey Champions Trophy
CHENNAI (Web Desk) – India defeated Pakistan by 4-0 in the Asian Champions Trophy 2023 at the Mayor Radhakrishnan Hockey Stadium in Chennai.
This commanding win allowed India to claim the top spot in the group stage standings. Unfortunately for Pakistan, this defeat led to their elimination from the semifinals contention, dealing a blow to their tournament aspirations at the hands of the host nation.
The highlights of the match included Harmanpreet Singh's two goals in the opening half, followed by Gurjan Singh's goal in the third quarter, extending India's lead to 3-0 and making a comeback for Pakistan highly unlikely.
Mandeep Singh further solidified India's dominance by adding another goal with less than 5 minutes remaining in the game.
Notably, Pakistan initially gained a goal in the first quarter, but India's subsequent breakthrough prompted a review that ultimately overturned the decision.
