The Tokyo Olympic Games: Playing a brand of hockey that has led to its recent metamorphosis into a medal contender in world hockey, the Indian men's hockey team defeated defending champions Japan 5-1 to re-established its superiority in the continent by winning the gold medal in the Asian Games for the fourth time in 19 editions.

The bonus they gained for their consistent performance in the hockey competition in Hangzhou was a berth in next year's Paris Olympics as the Asian Games in a qualifying tournament for the Olympics.
