Cricket may have the money and fan following, but hockey has given us 8 Olympic gold medals. No other team in any sport has seen that sort of success, not even from USA, Russia, Germany, Australia. We will reach double digits in coming years, my hunch. Edited October 6, 2023 by Gollum coffee_rules 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Khota Posted October 6, 2023 Share Posted October 6, 2023 It is one thing to win and other to totally dominate. This was domination. coffee_rules 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just want that Olympics gold. As much as I am a cricket fan, if it means sacrificing WC2023 for a hockey gold in Paris 2024, I would do it in a heartbeat.

Kudos to him Investment and intentional effort to train the players in the correct way is all it took. Everything else we heard over the decades - genetics, mental weakness etc etc - was total bogus. So gratifying to see this!! Gollum, coffee_rules and Mariyam 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
