The Indian women's hockey team narrowly lost 2-3 to Great Britain in their FIH Pro League match on Sunday, extending their winless streak to eight games. India played well for most of the match, but late goals by Grace Baldson clinched it for Great Britain.
Baldson netted twice in quick succession, securing victory for Great Britain after India's hopes were dashed, much like in the Tokyo Olympics, where Baldson's goal also caused heartbreak.
India's Lalremsiami scored a field goal in the 14th minute, while Navneet Kaur found the target in the 23rd minute. Goalkeeper Savita Punia highlighted the need for better defense, despite being pleased that India retained their place in the Pro League.
