The Indian: The Indian junior women's hockey team was defeated by Germany, 4-6 on Monday in the fifth match of their Tour of Europe, here, in Dusseldorf, Germany. Displaying remarkable spirit after conceding six goals, India rallied to score four goals and asserted themselves in the second half of the match.

Sanjana Horo, Bhinima Dan, and Kanika Siwach scored goals for India, but their efforts fell short as the German team proved a bit stronger in the end.

Like their previous encounter, Germany scored early in the first quarter and doubled their lead soon after. Despite trailing, the Indian defence did well to successfully defend multiple penalty corners for Germany. In the final minutes of the first quarter, India won a penalty corner, but the scoreline remained 2-0, in favour of Germany.
