India beats German club

COLOGNE, AUG. 8. The Athens-bound Indian hockey team put up a good show and edged past one of Germany's strongest clubs 3-2 in its last practice match before leaving for the Olympic Games.

India took an early lead through Baljit Singh Dhillon who converted a penalty corner. German club equalised after some time.

Dhanraj Pillay sounded the board after being fed by Gagan Ajit Singh.

With the German side equalising again through a field goal, the Indians converted their sixth penalty corner.

Deepak Thakur's accurate push was stopped by Gagan Ajit and Baljit's full-blooded shot was thwarted only to find an unmarked Pillay who did not miss the chance and pushed it home. — UNI
