Sreejesh is one of the all time greats in Indian sport. 

 

Retiring after this Olympics, glad this wasn't his last game. 

 

Defence plus Sreejesh plus Fulton......what they achieved today will be written in golden letters.

axleson is very much beatable but lakshya needs to target him with lobs over him. move him around.

[putrevus]

Losing to 10 players must hurt them a lot. India played full match with 10 vs 11. They must be crying in locker room.

[Kron]

apparently both are very good friends and train too. so yea hopefully friendship doesnt affect lakshya

[Vickydev]

What happened to that Chinese-Malaysian dude who was always winning? Is he no longer playing? 

[Gollum]

Btw cricket fans, Paddy Upton is our hockey team's mental conditioning coach, since Fulton joined. With the team all the time.

 

And we did a camp with the RSA explorer Mike Horn in Swiss Alps just before coming to Paris.

 

Familiar names? 

 

Mental strength is everything at that level.

his smashes are very powerful- Sen is at a disadvantage due to his height

yea you are right. but he cant move around as quick. we will see.

from what i have seen he lobs it right back and allowslakshya to hit a smash. when you lob over him that is. 

[Kron]

see @Lord he sucks at judgement. keep lobbing over. 

[Singh bling]

Lakshya will definitely bring gold or silver 

[Vickydev]

Sen has Danish for tea everyday. This is no sweat for him

[Gollum]

England world number 2 in hockey. Wales number 17 (beat Pak many times in last 4 years ). Scotland 21. GBR taps into all these 3 countries and has been playing as a team since last WC. 

 

India world number 7 before start of the Games.

 

Fulton showing as much respect to rankings, meaningless bilaterals and Pro League results as he did when he coached Belgium.
