HIL 2024-25: Team Gonasika Edge Past Soorma Hockey Club In A Cagey Match
Birsa Munda Hockey Stadium: Team Gonasika secured their second win of the Hockey India League (HIL) 2024-25 and kept their semifinal hopes alive after beating Soorma Hockey Club 2-1 at the Birsa Munda Hockey Stadium here on Tuesday. Nilam Sanjeep Xess (33`) and Lee Morton (59`) scored the goals for Team Gonasika while Pawan Rajbhar scored Soorma Hockey Club’s solitary goal.
Both sides were cautious in their approach in the first quarter with not a lot of big chances being created. It was only towards the end of the quarter that either side came close to scoring. In the 12th minute, Team Gonasika’s Lee Morton found himself in front of goal after some good work by Mandeep Singh. Morton shot straight at Mohith H.S. in the JSW Soorma Hockey Club goal.
A minute later, Soorma won the first penalty corner of the match. With no Harmanpreet Singh on the field, the drag-flicking duties fell to Nicolas della Torre and Jeremy Hayward. Della Torre’s attempt was blocked superbly by Yashdeep Siwach at the post.
