HIL 2024-25: Hyderabad Toofans Outclass Soorma Club 3-1 To Storm Into Final
Birsa Munda Hockey Stadium: The Hyderabad Toofans delivered their strongest performance of the season to outclass JSW Soorma Hockey Club 3-1 and soar into the final of the Hockey India League 2024-25 at the Birsa Munda Hockey Stadium here on Friday. The Hyderabad Toofans will face Shrachi Rarh Bengal Tigers for the title on Saturday.
In a match fitting of a semifinal, the Hyderabad Toofans opened the scoring through Amandeep Lakra in the 25th minute before Jacob Anderson (35') and Nilakanta Sharma (43') added to their tally while Jeremy Hayward (60’) scored a consolation goal for Soorma off the final play of the match.
Earlier, it was the Toofans who won the game’s first penalty corner in the eighth minute after some fine work from Talwinder Singh. Gonzalo Peillat opted for a variation from the penalty corner as he drilled it back to Talwinder, but he just couldn’t get his stick to the ball in time.
