The Indian Men: The Indian Men’s Hockey Team narrowly lost 4-5 in a penalty shootout against host Australia in the second game of the Hobart leg of the FIH Men’s Pro League 2025-26 here at the Tasmania Hockey Centre on Sunday.
The match was tied at 2-2 after regulation time, with Amit Rohidas scoring at 15’ and Jugraj Singh at 43’ to give India the lead. However, Joel Rintala scored twice at 47’ and 56’ to help Australia level the score.
The hosts dominated possession early on, moving the ball well in their own half.
