First Game.. First Win


Came after good 3 months, The first win by the Indian Hockey Team on the home soil when they defeated Malaysia by 3-2 at their opening match at CWG 2010.

The much anticipated match with team India returning to the home soil with hope of win was succeded when a much inspired Sandeep Singh scored equalizer 10 seconds before the first half, enabling India to Go 2-2 in the half time.

Second half was much more in the favour of the blues as we kept most of the possesion, for the first time in a while we saw Indian Mid Feild giving back passes and making strategies all over again, and the Indian Defenders coming up and attacking down the flanks.

Efforts by Team India, Played in the end as Bharat Chikara netted the ball with 3 minutes to go, ensuring that India register their first win of the tournament

Earlier, Malaysia opened the scoring with Hanafi Hafifihafiz scoring in just 15 minutes. But the lead was reduced by a Set Peice goal by Dhanjay Mahadik in the 23 minute.
