FIH Hockey Pro League: Dutch Women Trounce USA In Opening Match
FIH Hockey Pro League: The Netherlands started the second mini-tournament of the Women's FIH Hockey Pro League season 5 with an emphatic 7-0 victory against the United States at the Kalinga Stadium here on Saturday. The Netherlands' dominant victory over the United States extends their winning streak to start the 2023/24 season to five games.
The Dutch were patient in the first half, Luna Fokke firing one in after some good interplay along the left baseline in the 13th minute, and Pien Dicke making it two a minute later with similar interplay along the right baseline.
The USA defended well for a goalless second quarter to trail 2-0 at half-time, but the Dutch were very much in control and it was no surprise when they picked up the intensity in the second half.
