Hockey News: India and GB play out exciting 3-3 draw in Sultan of Johor Cup

The Indian Junior Men's Hockey Team and Great Britain played out a brilliant 3-3 draw in their final round robin game at the 9th Sultan of Johor Cup. In a cagey first quarter, India controlled the pace of the game and were at the forefront of most attacks but unable to breach the Great Britain defence in the final third. They won the first Penalty Corner of the game in the 11th minute. From the injection the ball fell to Dinachandra Singh whose shot on goal was parried by Oliver Payne in Great Britain's goal. The two teams went into the break locked at 0-0. India picked up pace in the second quarter and slowly started asserting themselves more in the midfield. The first clear opportunity fell to Gursahibjit Singh, released by a superb pass from Sudeep Chirmako. Gursahibjit's shot though was dragged wide. Soon enough Payne was called into action once again, this time when Sanjay went through one-on-one with the goalkeeper, who did enough to thwart the attempt.
