Eindhoven, June 10

The Indian men’s hockey team lost 2-3 to Netherlands in their FIH Pro League match here today.

Duco Telgenkamp (6th minute), Boris Burkhardt (40th) and Tjep Hoedemakers (42nd) scored for the Dutch side, while Sanjay (17th) and Gurjant Singh (45th) struck for India.

India lost 1-4 to the same opponents here on Wednesday but had come into today’s match after a convincing 3-0 win over Argentina.

India, though, remain on top of the standings with 27 points from 15 matches.

India started off the match with more possession, looking to attack the Dutch in the early stages. The Netherlands had to dig deep to keep India from scoring even though Amit Rohidas almost converted a penalty corner.

The Tribune, now published from Chandigarh, started publication on February 2, 1881, in Lahore (now in Pakistan). It was started by Sardar Dyal Singh Majithia, a public-spirited philanthropist, and is run by a trust comprising five eminent persons as trustees.

The Tribune, the largest selling English daily in North India, publishes news and views without any bias or prejudice of any kind. Restraint and moderation, rather than agitational language and partisanship, are the hallmarks of the newspaper. It is an independent newspaper in the real sense of the term.

The Tribune has two sister publications, Punjabi Tribune (in Punjabi) and Dainik Tribune (in Hindi).
