GBR pulls one back, PC converted early in Q4.

 

Germany leading 2-1

How is GBR looking ? 

Beatable for us ?

Rankings and their World Cup performance suggest they have improved massively.

[Gollum]

Axelsen is the toughest possible matchup for Lakshya. 

 

But then again, same was said about today's Ind vs Aus.

Beatable. 

 

The way we played today, only Belgium can top that. 

[Gollum]

Don't sleep on Argentina, my dark horse. Their defence plus GK combo is unbelievable. 

[9zaesm]

Anyone know where I can watch field hockey highlights ? Today’s game?

[Gollum]

GBR take out their GK. 

[Gollum]

PC to GBR with 22 seconds remaining. Last chance. 

[Gollum]

Ger win 2-1.

 

So Ind vs GBR QF it is.

Singapori bhai game thoda to aage leker jao.

[Gollum]

India has screwed over Aus so badly here. 

 

They would have obliterated GBR. But now QF against Dutch, if they win that, Belgium will be waiting. No way they win those 2 back to back. From gold medal contenders to this predicament. 

[Gollum]

My prediction:

 

Ind vs Arg SF 1

 

Bel vs Neth SF 2

 

Ind vs Bel F

Likewise even a draw would have finished our hopes. 

 

Taking on Bel, Aus, Neth (QF), Bel (SF), Ger/Aus (bronze medal match) back to back is worst kind of punishment on this planet.

99% Belgium will make the SF.

Also now 3rd place bronze match becomes very tough for india if they lose semis. Silver medal looks comparatively easy.
