Jakarta - The Indian women’s hockey team beat defending champions South Korea 4-1 and confirmed its spot in the semifinals. Significantly, India’s last three goals came in the last 10 minutes as India displayed title credentials to go top of Pool B with this impressive victory. And this was without the services of inspirational captain Rani Rampal, who sat out of the match. The team management, including coach Sjoerd Marijne, did not want to take any risk after she complained of pain in her glutes.
Navneet Kaur (16th minute), Gurjit Kaur (54th and 55th) and Vandana Kataria (56th) scored.
