Revenge On Their Mind As India Take On Germany In Bilateral Hockey Series
Major Dhyan Chand National Stadium: Harmanpreet Singh's Indian hockey team will have to attend to some unfinished business from the Paris Olympic Games when they take on reigning World Cup winner Germany in a two-match bilateral series at the iconic Major Dhyan Chand National Stadium here.
Germany had defeated India in a semifinal match in the Paris Olympics. India then defeated Spain in the third-place match to claim the bronze medal while Germany lost to the Netherlands in the final and had to settle for the silver medal.
The first match of the India and Germany series on Wednesday is set to be a landmark moment as international hockey returns to the capital after a decade-long hiatus. The Major Dhyan Chand National Stadium last hosted an international match during the Hockey World League final in January 2014, making this event even more special.
