Their dreams of winning a gold for the first time in 44 years may have been dashed, but the Indian hockey team would look to match their performance from Tokyo three years ago and win a medal when it takes on Spain in the Paris Olympics 2024. Harmanpreet Singh and Co. have been nothing but dominant during their run to the third-place finish. They beat Argentina, New Zealand and the mighty Australia, and lost to Belgium via a narrow 1-2 margin to reach the quarterfinal. In the knockout against Great Britain, India won a thrilling penalty shootout to secure their place in the semi-final.
Against Germany, despite the absence of ace defender Amit Rohidas due to a controversial red card, India played thrilling hockey and went toe-to-toe versus the reigning world champions, and only fell behind in the last six minutes of the match.
Nonetheless, a medal can really boost India’s run at the Paris Olympics, marred by bad luck and as many as 6 fourth-place finishes. With India having last won a medal at the games on August 1, all eyes will be on the hockey team to break the lull and give the entire Indian contingent reasons to cheer and veteran goalkeeper PR Sreejesh a perfect farewell from international hockey.
