Our men were lucky to win this match as French team stretched them to fullest ... France stunned us scoring goal in 3rd minute and afterwards we were struggling due to poor passing and bad collection inside the D ... In second quarter we raised our game and scored two goals in two minutes ... French team kept attacking managed equalizer in 43rd minute ... In fourth quarter French team were dominating and our team was struggling on the field ... In dying moments Saradar Singh created amazing opportunity through his solo game which superbly scored by Ramandeep as poacher ... Our team need improvement to finish in top-2 to avoid tough teams in the quarter.

At Women's Hockey World League - Semi Finals 2015, Antwerp, Belgium

Pool B
India l Belgium 0-1 (0-0)
Goal Scorers - Lieselotte van Lindt (BEL) 35' PC

Not a good start for our women as they lose their first match to Belgium ... Overall disappointing performance as they failed to put decent performance on the field ... Passes were poor and were losing possession at any given time ... Couple of moves were good but at that time Belgian defense stood strong ... Need too much improvement.
