India Lose 1-2 To Spain Finish 10th At FIH Hockey Junior Women's World Cup

By IANS News December 12, 2025 • 11:30 AM View: 142

FIH Hockey Junior Women: Indian women’s team went down 1-2 against Spain in its 9th/10th place playoff match in the FIH Hockey Junior Women’s World Cup 2025 at the Centro Deportivo de Hockey Cesped, Estadio Nacional, to finish 10th in the overall standings of the tournament.

Kanika Siwach (41') was the goalscorer for India, while Natalia Vilanova (16') and Esther Canales (36') netted a goal each for Spain.

It was a cagey yet entertaining first quarter with intense action and chances on both sides of the field. Midway through the quarter, Spain were through on goal with only the goalkeeper to beat, but India's Nidhi heroically stepped out and made two back-to-back saves to keep the scores level.
