The Indian men’s hockey team continued their fine run at the Paris Olympics with a 2-0 win over Ireland in their men’s Pool B match on Tuesday.
For India, their skipper Harmanpreet Singh was on the scoresheet, getting a goal in the 11th minute via a penalty shot and getting another in the 19th minute via a penalty corner.
In the previous match, Harmanpreet came up with a late goal to help his team hold Argentina 1-1 in their pool B match of the ongoing Paris Olympics 2024 at the Yves-du-Manoir Stadium on Monday. It was Lucas Martinez (22’) who had put Argentina in the lead early on.
Harmanpreet delivered a clutch goal with very few moments to go for the end of the final quarter.
In Pool B, India now sits at the top with two wins and a draw, for a total of seven points.
