Junior Women’s World Cup: India Go Down 1-3 To Germany In Chile
FIH Junior Women: The Indian junior women’s hockey team suffered a 1-3 defeat against Germany in their second match at the FIH Junior Women’s World Cup campaign at the Centro Deportivo de Hockey Césped, Estadio Nacional in Santiago on Wednesday. Hina Bano (58’) scored the only goal for India. Lena Frerichs (5’), Annika Schönhoff (52’), and Martina Reisenegger (59’) got on the scoresheet for Germany.
It was a high-intensity start to the contest, with both teams eager to assert their dominance early on. Pressing high up the field, Germany pushed India onto the back foot in the opening exchanges and earned a penalty stroke in the fifth minute. Lena Frerichs (5’) made no mistake from the spot, handing her side a 1-0 lead.
Despite the early setback, India gradually settled into their rhythm and began to create opportunities of their own. However, they were unable to find the finishing touch needed to draw level in the first quarter.
