Highlights India Women vs Argentina Women Hockey Semi-final Score And Updates Tokyo Olympics (IND W 1-2 ARG W Full Time)

Tokyo: Hello and welcome to our hockey coverage of IND W vs ARG W, Highlights and Updates Tokyo Olympics Hockey Highlights between India Women and Argentina Women being played at the Oi Stadium, North Pitch in Tokyo. Argentina dominated the third quarter and eventually went on to take the lead for the first time in the match. Noel Barrionuevo scored both the goals for the Argentines as India went down 2-1 after a spirited show in the final quarter of the match.  Earlier, India women started off brilliant by taking the lead as Gurjit Kaur converted the first penalty corner India got but Argentina came back strongly in the second quarter by scoring the equaliser. Both teams were locked 1-1 at half-time.

The Indian women’s hockey team has already made history by reaching the semifinals for the first time. Now they can add a golden hue to their fairy-tale run by beating Argentina in Wednesday’s semifinal. Having beaten world No. 2 Australia in the quarterfinals on Monday, the Indians will be bullish against Argentina. They have exceeded their expectations, they have nothing to lose and all the experience to gain by playing one of the top teams. But they can’t be complacent as this is an opportunity of a lifetime to reach the final at the Olympic Games.

Ranked ninth in the world before the start of the Olympics, the Indians have come up the hard way, breaking new grounds to reach the semifinals by beating Australia 1-0 on Monday. It was a clinical display in which they scored an early goal and then absorbed the pressure created by Hockeyroos throughout.

The Indian defenders and goalkeeper Savita Punia were exceptional against Australia and they will now have to repeat that performance against Argentina. However, the South Americans are a very different team from the Hockeyroos, more physical though less imposing. They are a very fit side and do a lot of running up and down.

They have a very good short corner specialist in Agustina Gorzelany, who has scored three goals so far, while forward Agustina Albertarrio has contributed two field goals.

The Indians have some idea about the Argentine team having played them on a tour in January this year. Though those were exhibition matches and the players are not as serious as an Olympics clash, the Indians had some good moments on that tour. The Indians have nothing to lose and therefore should play freely and go all out. They have nothing to lose but an Olympic medal to gain for reaching the final will assure a medal.
