Spanish hockey coach Caldas was Dutch coach when they beat us in 2018 WC QF, controversial match there as well, with umpiring decisions going against us.

Though we are going for gold, path to bronze also becomes so much easier.

China doesn't play any of the tougher more physically demanding team sports. They focus on individual ones. 

 

Asians always have to bear the brunt of poor decisions. It's about time the 2 big Asian countries do something about such decisions. They need to intervene. Take action.

Wow.. Belgium players just can't believe what happened there.

Australia's number one nemesis is Germany, on our side of the draw. If not for Germans, Aussies would have won 3-4 Olympic golds and another 2 WCs by now.

Their route to finals is now cleared. Aus will beat Netherlands i think..

Second half of this game was something !!!!!!

 

India vs GBR was valiant and clutch defensive masterclass with one man short for most of the game. Penalty shoot out always interesting.

 

This second half was non-stop attacks and counter attacks. 

 

Most entertaining sport of these Games, hands down.

Spain actually edged Belgium in many aspects here. Not just a fluke.

And we do well vs germans. Now we aren't scared of Ozzie's either. Team is more than capable.

Rohidas suspension is a big blow though.

Believe Manpreet will play in his position and that might leave us quite deficient in creation in midfield.

No fav here, want Novak to retire with the greatness of Olympic Gold
