Hockey World Cup Qualifiers: India Beat Uruguay 4-0 In Opener
FIH Hockey World Cup Qualifiers: The Indian women's hockey team opened its campaign in the FIH Hockey World Cup Qualifiers 2026 with a dominant 4-0 win over Uruguay at the G. M. C. Balayogi Hockey Ground at the Gachibowli Sports Complex in Hyderabad on Sunday.
Sunelita Toppo (21'), Ishika (40'), Lalremsiami (49') and Rutuja Dadaso Pisal (58') scored the goals for the home side.
It was a bright start to the match in the first quarter as India made multiple circle entries and several goal-scoring chances. In the 4th minute, the home side won the first penalty corner of the night as Udita found the net after a beautifully orchestrated variation, but her shot went a bit high, and hence the goal wasn't given. Uruguay, too, had their moments as it banked on counter-attacking hockey, but India's resilient backline held its ground.
