HIL 2024-25: Tamil Nadu Dragons Register 2-0 Win Against UP Rudras
The Dragons threatened to open the scoring as they found themselves in a brilliant 4v1 position in the second minute as Uttam Singh had an opportunity to get on the scoresheet, but the side could not capitalize. The UP Rudras left no stone unturned in their search for the opener butDavid Harte was not to be beaten between the sticks. They won a penalty corner with mere seconds left in the first quarter and Rohidas showed just why he’s the best in the business as he charged off the line to deflect Sam Ward’s sizzling attempt.
The scoreline remained unchanged in the second 15 as well, with neither keeper being forced into action. Shesha Gowda was in top form as he played a crucial role in keeping the lethal Hardik Singh in check. Tom Craig went on a lung-bursting run with about a minute left but was undone by a stunning tackle from Lalit Upadhyay as the two teams went into the break on level terms, setting the stage for a high-octane final two quarters.
