'Cannot Afford Any Mistake': Harmanpreet Rues India's Lapses Despite Pakistan Win Harmanpreet Singh's words after India's 5 3 win over Pakistan at the FIH Men's Hockey World Cup serve as a stark reminder that even in victory, there is room for improvement.
The Indian captain emphasized eliminating defensive lapses before the business end of the tournament, a timely warning to his team and coaches.
India has historically struggled with maintaining possession after winning the ball in advanced areas. This problem is not new; it's one that has plagued them in past tournaments, often resulting in crucial losses.
