Hockey Pro League: India Go Down 1-2 Against Argentina
FIH Hockey Pro League: India suffered a close 1-2 defeat against Argentina in their FIH Hockey Pro League 2024/25 game at the Wagener Hockey Stadium in Amstelveen, Netherlands on Thursday.
Jugraj Singh (4') netted a goal for the Indian team, while for Argentina, Tomas Domene (9’, 49’) scored a brace. Notably, India’s regular captain Harmanpreet Singh missed the game due to a finger tissue injury sustained in the previous match. In his absence, Vice-Captain Hardik Singh stepped up to lead the team.
Argentina started the game with high pressing and greater ball possession, but India responded with sharp passing and swift circle entries. This early momentum earned them a penalty corner, which Jugraj Singh (4’) converted with a powerful drag flick to hand India the lead. Argentina quickly earned a penalty corner of their own, but Indian goalkeeper Krishan Bahadur Pathak stood tall, making a crucial save and clearing the danger.
