Women's Asian Champions Trophy: India Outshine Japan 2-1 To Record 4th Win In A Row
Asian Champions Trophy Ranchi: The Indian women's hockey team on Tuesday registered a brilliant 2-1 win over Japan in their fourth encounter of the ongoing Jharkhand Women's Asian Champions Trophy Ranchi 2023. Navneet Kaur (31') and Sangita Kumari (47') netted a goal each for India, while Kana Urata (37') emerged as a lone goalscorer for Japan.
India immediately initiated an aggressive approach, applying relentless pressure to unsettle Japan. In response, Japan admirably held their ground, negating India's attempts to seize an early advantage.
Remarkably, they launched counterattacks, shifting the pressure back onto the Indian team. Japan even earned a penalty corner opportunity, but failed to capitalise on it, resulting in a goalless first quarter.
