Men's Pro League: Tomas Domene Scores Four Goals As Argentina Beat India 8-0 In Rourkela
Birsa Munda Hockey Stadium: India succumbed to an 8-0 defeat against Argentina in their second match of the Rourkela leg of the FIH Men's Pro League 2025–26 at the Birsa Munda Hockey Stadium in Rourkela on Thursday. Tomas Domene (15’, 20’, 26’, 60’), Tomas Ruiz (14’), Lucio Mendez (22’), Ignacio Ibarra (25'), and Nicolas della Torre (30’) scored goals in a dominant display for the visitors.
It was an engaging start to the game with India beginning the game on the front foot, looking to make inroads in the early exchanges. After a spell of possession, the hosts had the opportunity to draw first blood towards the end of the first quarter, having been awarded a penalty stroke. However, Harmanpreet Singh was denied from the spot by the Argentine goalkeeper.
Argentina scored almost instantly with Tomas Ruiz (14’) powering his tomahawk into the back of the net to give his side the lead. The visitors quickly doubled their advantage as Tomas Domene (15’) managed to guide his effort past Suraj Karkera to give his side a 2-0 lead in the opening quarter.
