Asian Games: Indian Men's Hockey Team Beats Bangladesh 12-0 To Top Pool A, Confirms Semifinal Berth
With five wins in all their five Pool stage matches, India ended the Pool stage as table toppers. Harmanpreet Singh (2', 4', 32'), and Mandeep Singh (18', 24', 46) scored hat-tricks each, while Abhishek (41', 57) scored a brace for India. Lalit Kumar Upadhyay (23'), Amit Rohidas (28'), Nilakanta Sharma (47'), and Gurjant Singh (56') also scored a goal each to help India get the win.
Jarmanpreet Singh led the first attack of the match from the right flanks to start the proceedings. The in-form Indian Captain Harmanpreet Singh (2') was right on target on the first penalty corner as India took an early 1-0 lead. Moments later, Harmanpreet (4') converted another set-piece to make it 2-0. Despite the early lead, the relentless Indian team continued to press deep, not allowing Bangladesh to make any inroads into their circle, and India maintained their 2-0 lead to close out the first quarter.
