Indian Men's hockey team continued their excellent run at the hockey Asia Cup 2022 after beating Japan 2-1 in their first Super 4 league match in Jakarta on Saturday. The team coached by former Indian skipper Sardar Singh currently sit pretty atop their Super 4 points table but another challenge awaits them on Sunday.
India will take on second-placed Malaysia in a crucial clash which could all but confirm the defending champs' route into the final of Asia Cup 2022. Teams that will finish in the top two places in the Super 4 league stage will qualify for the final.
While India took revenge for their pool stage loss earlier in the tournament which saw Japan win by 5-2, the match on Saturday was a much more evenly contested affair with two spectacular field goals from Manjeet (8th minute) and Pawan Rajbhar (35th) ensuring a narrow win for the Men in Blue.
