Ravi Kumar Dahiya

The Indian Women’s Hockey Team created history by qualifying for the semi-finals against Argentina and made the whole nation proud and excited. However, they lost in the semis and will now fight for the bronze. Rani Rampal’s team lost 1-2 after scoring the first goal early in the match.

“We came here to win a medal and still there’s one (available). It’s now about recovery, about the mindset. The good thing is, it’s not always good that we lost a lot in the past but we also have learned to deal with the losses. So it’s okay, what can we improve on from this match.”- Indian women’s hockey team chief coach Sjoerd Marijne

The silver lining still remains the fans’ positive attitude towards this and they still continue to congratulate the girls for their amazing performance thus far in this mega event.
