India came into the game against Namibia with their confidence riding high after back-to-back wins against Poland and the USA. They had Namibia on the backfoot within no time having scored two goals in the first four minutes of the game. The first goal came from Vice Captain Mahima Choudhary (3\u2019) while the second was scored by Deepika Soreng (4\u2019).<\/p>\r\n\r\n
No further goals were scored in the first half but it was evident that India were in complete control of the game as the score read 2-0 at half-time.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
Namibia scored their first goal of the game early in the second half with Jivanka Kruger (18\u2019) opening their account but India quickly retaliated as Mahima Choudhary (19\u2019) scored her second goal to help India regain their two-goal lead.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
Rutaja Dadaso Pisal (22\u2019) and Akshata Abaso Dhekale (23\u2019) added to India\u2019s tally before Deepika Soreng (26\u2019) scored her second goal as India led 6-1 with four minutes left on the clock.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
Ajmina Kujur (28\u2019) too scored for India before Anthea Coetzee (30\u2019) scored Namibia\u2019s second goal as India went on to win the match 7-2.<\/p>\r\n\r\n", "image": "https:\/\/img.cricketnmore.com\/uploads\/2024\/01\/hockey-5s-womens-wc-india-beat-namibia-2-0-to-enter-quarterfinal.jpg", "alt_img": "Hockey 5s Women's WC: India beat Namibia 2-0 to enter quarterfinal", "alt_title": "Hockey 5s Women's WC: India beat Namibia 2-0 to enter quarterfinal", "image1": null, "video": null, "seo_title": "Hockey 5s Women's WC: India Beat Namibia 2-0 To Enter Quarterfinal On Cricketnmore", "seo_desc": "Hockey 5s Women's WC: India Beat Namibia 2-0 To Enter Quarterfinal, FIH Hockey5s Women: India won their final Pool C match of the FIH Hockey5s Women\u2019s World Cup 2024 against Namibia.", "seo_keywords": "FIH Hockey5s Women, World Cup, New Zealand, Vice Captain Mahima Choudhary, Deepika Soreng, Jivanka Kruger, Mahima Choudhary, Rutaja Dadaso Pisal, Akshata Abaso Dhekale, Ajmina Kujur, Anthea Coetzee", "tag": "", "tagging": "FIH Hockey5s Women, World Cup, New Zealand, Vice Captain Mahima Choudhary, Deepika Soreng, Jivanka Kruger, Mahima Choudhary, Rutaja Dadaso Pisal, Akshata Abaso Dhekale, Ajmina Kujur, Anthea Coetzee", "status": "1", "img_rpt": "0", "google": "1", "standout": "0", "edapps": "0", "pulse": "0", "no_index": "0", "feed": "0", "fixture": null, "slug": "hockey-5s-womens-wc-india-beat-namibia-2-0-to-enter-quarterfinal", "user_id": "0", "read_count": "0", "ians_date": null, "ians_time": null, "server_time": null, "trash": "0", "view_count": "642", "page_break": "0", "instant_articles": "1", "auto_link": "0", "created": "2024-01-25 16:30:04", "updated": "2024-01-25 16:30:04", "img_from": "Image Source: IANS", "img_source": null, "schedule_publish": null, "news_keywords": "FIH Hockey5s Women, World Cup, New Zealand, Vice Captain Mahima Choudhary, Deepika Soreng, Jivanka Kruger, Mahima Choudhary, Rutaja Dadaso Pisal, Akshata Abaso Dhekale, Ajmina Kujur, Anthea Coetzee", "livescore_text": null, "livescore_link": null, "btn_text": null, "resend_feed": "1", "google_feed": "1", "read_more": "0", "posted_by": "23", "jio_date": "2024-01-25 16:30:04", "scheduled": "0", "news_now": "0", "breaking_news": "0", "google_date": null, "featured": "0", "sports_name": "hockey", "cnmid": "856944", "link": "https:\/\/www.cricketnmore.com\/sports-news\/hockey-5s-womens-wc-india-beat-namibia-2-0-to-enter-quarterfinal-12568" }
