HIL 2024-25: Tamil Nadu Dragons Battle Past Bengal Tigers 2-1, Top Standings
Birsa Munda Hockey Stadium: The Tamil Nadu Dragons extended their winning run as they rode on goals from Karthi Selvam (16’) and Uttam Singh (37’) to earn a hard-fought win against the Shrachi Rarh Bengal Tigers in an enthralling Hockey India League (HIL) 2024-25 match at the Birsa Munda Hockey Stadium here on Friday.
A cagey first half saw neither team threaten the goal in the opening 10 minutes before the Tamil Nadu Dragons switched gears. They made regular visits to the opposition circle and had a chance to take the lead in the final minute via a corner, but Jamie Carr made a sharp save to his right to deny Blake Govers.
However, the Dragons did not have to wait long to take the lead as Karthi scored within seconds of the second quarter. Uttam played a delightful aerial pass across the goal and Karthi was at the right place at the right time to caress the ball home and score his second goal of the season.
