Hockey News: Indian Women’s Hockey Team hold GB to 1-1 draw in second match

The Indian Women's Hockey Team played out a 1-1 draw against Great Britain in the second match of their Tour of England held here on Sunday. India's Lalremsiami scored the equalizing goal in the 32nd minute after Great Britain had taken an early lead in the match. India were out of the blocks quicker, and earned a pair of Penalty Corners within the first two minutes. Maddie Hinch in Great Britain's goal was at hand to ensure India didn't take the lead early on though. Soon it was Great Britain who reciprocated, winning a Penalty Corner from a swift attack. Despite a smart save by the Indian defence, an infringement meant the hosts were awarded a Penalty Stroke, which was duly converted in the 8th minute, giving them a 1-0 lead. It was that slender lead they took into the first break.
