Our u-21 team is performing really well in ongoing Sultan of Johar Cup ... They started with win against inexperienced Australian side scoring 2 goals in the second half ... In their second match they defeated 5 times Junior World champion Germany ... From start our boys kept pressure and scored 2 goals through Mandeep Singh in the first 10 minutes ... Germany failed to recover from early set-back ... They reduced margin through penalty corner in the second half but our boys scored another goal for comfortable win ... In the third match we managed only boring draw against Pakistan team ... In this match our forwards failed to win a single penalty corner ... In 4th match we defeated New Zealand comfortably ... From the start our boys dominated the match and scored 3 goals in the first half ... In the second half our team used unnecessary defensive tactics ... They missed numerous chances also and in between New Zealand managed to score but this win guarantee India's place in the final on the Sunday.
