India, somehow, first staved off Great Britain’s 11 players with old school defensive grit and then thwarted their opposition’s modern day tech, as they won an Olympic men’s quarter-final shoot-out this afternoon having played with nine outfielders for all but 17 minutes after a rare red card to Amit Rohidas.
Thus, at the final hooter, India’s players thrashed the air in delight at taking it to a shoot-out after a 1-1 draw. Sure enough, on-field joy then swept across the astro and the pockets of light blue in the packed stands as Sreejesh proved the star between the posts. He stood tall, smothering and saving two GB shoot-outs as India advanced to the semi-finals 4-2 against a GB men’s side many had fancied unlocking a first medal since those Seoul heroics in 1988.

In the end, though, it was a first Olympic defeat of their campaign and, after two disallowed goals, a quarter-final with India. We’re going to need that on Sunday against India and we’ll see what happens. Earlier, PR Sreejesh had stuck out his glove in a frantic circle melee to earn India a first win over Australia at Olympic level since 1972.

Britain’s hopes of a first medal in men’s hockey since 1988 were ended by a penalty shootout defeat against 10-man India in the quarter-finals. The game finished 1-1 after 60 minutes and India, who also defeated Britain at the same stage in Tokyo, were flawless in a 4-2 victory in the shoot-out, while Conor Williamson and Phil Roper could not convert.

India triumphed in the shootout to send Team GB crashing out. India beat Team GB on penalties to progress to the Olympic semi-finals. It was heartbreak for Team GB who had played with an extra man for most of the game.

India win the penalty shoot-out 4-2.
In a repeat of the Tokyo quarter-final, Great Britain and India faced each other again to see who would make it through to the Olympic hockey semi-finals.
It was another highly contested encounter, which ended 1-1 at full time.
With the scores level it came down to a shoot-out which India won, scoring all four after GB had scored two but missed two.
India advance to the semi-finals and for Great Britain, sadly their Olympic campaign is over.
