Hockey Olympic Qualifiers: Udita Has Filled The Space Left By Deep Grace, Admits Coach Schopman
FIH Hockey Olympic Qualifiers: Indian women's team's head coach Janneke Schopman on Tuesday praised her defenders for their superb performance in the matches against New Zealand and Italy that sealed hosts' place in the semifinals of the FIH Hockey Olympic Qualifiers, and said she was more happy that her penalty corner experts were getting goals which has boosted their confidence.
Set to play World No.5 Germany in the semifinal on Thursday, Schopman would like to have her defenders Monika, Nikki Pradhan, Udita and Ishita continue in the same vein as that will be very necessary against a strong team like Germany.
Along with that, the 45-year-old coach was happy that Udita got two goals in the match against Italy on Tuesday. Though drag-flicker Deepika could not score off a penalty corner, she did convert a crucial penalty stroke that, Janneke said, will boost her confidence in the upcoming matches.
