Team India will aim to beat Wales in their last Group D match in the ongoing FIH Men’s Hockey World Cup 2023. The match is to take place in Bhubaneswar. India made a winning start in the competition, beating Spain 2-0 in the opening encounter. Then the Indian team met England in their second match and that game finished in 0-0 draw. Not to forget, this was a high-octane match, played at high intensity and was closer than what the results could tell. The draw also meant that England continued to top the group because of the bigger goal difference. They had previously beated Wales 5-0. So despite India and England with same number of points (4), England sit atop the points table.
That is the reason India need to beat Wales but a bigger goal difference today. And hope England has a tough last game vs Spain. Currently, England are ahead by 4 goals and India will need to play hard to ensure the goal difference gets rubbed off and they surpass the English.
It’s time to relive the Odisha energy as Team India takes on Wales tonight. _
