Who said that Indians are good only in Cricket? They are equally good in Hockey as well. On the 18th of June, when our cricketers were battling the Pakistani team, our hockey team made us proud by defeating them by 7-1. But that’s not it; they have done it once again.
Yes, they have made us proud today by defeating Pakistan by 6-1 in the 5th-8tt place classification match. Ramandeep Singh, Mandeep Singh, Harmanpreet and Talwinder Singh displayed a wonderful performance.
This is the 2nd consecutive win for India after 7-1 result in the 1st match. Tomorrow too, there’s an interesting match; India will be fighting Canada in the 5th-6th place match.
Pakistan was very desperate for making goals, but India beat them nicely with good defence. You are our heroes and we love you for making the nation happy once again.
Here’s the official tweet;

To conclude, we would like to say that cricket is not everything; even hockey is an important game and we should be cheering for those players too.
