LordPrabhzy Posted January 22 Author Share Posted January 22 Choking against NZ in world tournaments continues.. no matter what the sport.. a country which has more sheep than people we got beat despite having 1000s of crores of investment. Can we just accept that we are not built to play sports consistently well and just obsessed with gilli danda and IPL vivek04, Lord, Stan AF and 1 other 1 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nitinbwj Posted January 22 Share Posted January 22 (edited) What's the use of supporting Hockey and getting so much attention as the team has played some shocking hockey. It's a fukin joke. I feel for Odisha Govt that has always supported and encouraged Hockey.

vivek04 Posted January 22 Share Posted January 22 Anyways belgium would have pound us looking at the level of our play. However, losing to nz is laughable and it would further deteriorates hockey popularity in india. AKane, singhprakash72 and nitinbwj 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nitinbwj Posted January 22 Share Posted January 22 That Olympic bronze was the best hockey that we played. Haven't seen any good hockey after that. Sreejesh the freak saved his best for that Olympic glory. He could have saved a few today if not for that injury but the attempt at goals was shocking.

nitinbwj Posted January 22 Share Posted January 22 That's why I don't watch the stupid leagues whether Hockey Or Football concerning or hosted in India. It does NOT help our local players. Results are a big fat ZERO. Frustrated 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LordPrabhzy Posted January 22 Author Share Posted January 22 crores being spent on stadiums and facilities for international team has no value if widespread hockey facilities and coaches are not there at the grassroots- We cannot compete with the European giants till our sporting culture in childhood does not change. China sucks in football and hockey because it's much easier to take a totalitarian approach to individual events... team events require a sporting culture to succeed nitinbwj and rollingstoned 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
