Assured of a <keyword id="22615464" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="quarterfinal-berth" source="keywords">quarterfinal berth</keyword>, India will aim for consistency when they take on reigning champions <keyword id="19949441" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="Belgium" source="keywords" meta.keywordsubtype="org" meta.entityname="Belgium" meta.hostid="261" meta.entityid="Belgium">Belgium</keyword> in their tough penultimate Pool B match of the <keyword id="20028513" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="Olympic-Games" source="keywords">Olympic Games</keyword> on Thursday. The Red Lions are leading Pool B with three wins from as many matches, while the Indians are a rung below in the second place with two wins and a draw. Mighty Australia are placed third with seven points from two wins and a loss. <keyword id="19907360" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="Argentina" source="keywords" meta.keywordsubtype="org" meta.entityname="Argentina" meta.hostid="261" meta.entityid="Argentina">Argentina</keyword> have also qualified for the quarterfinals with four points from three games, which includes a win, a draw and a loss. <keyword id="19916454" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="New-Zealand" source="keywords" meta.keywordsubtype="org" meta.entityname="New Zealand" meta.hostid="261" meta.entityid="New Zealand">New Zealand</keyword> and <keyword id="20054308" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="Ireland" source="keywords" meta.keywordsubtype="org" meta.entityname="Ireland" meta.hostid="261" meta.entityid="Ireland">Ireland</keyword> are out of the race after suffering three consecutive losses. Only the top four can make the last-eight stage cut. The Indians started their campaign on a shaky note with a close 3-2 win over New Zealand and then scored a last-minute goal to salvage a draw against former champions Argentina. But against Ireland, it was a completely different performance from the Indians, at least in the first two quarters. They dominated the possession with one-touch play to score two goals in the first quarter which proved vital in the end. India skipper Harmanpreet Singh once again rose to the occasion, first converting a penalty stroke and then finding the net from a set piece in the second quarter to hand his side the win. The Indian mid-field, led by veteran and four-time Olympian Manpreet Singh and vice-captain Hardik Singh, also brought their A game to the table, creating several chances for the forward-line. The likes of Mandeep Singh, Lalit Upadhyay, Gurjant Singh and Sukhjeet Singh sparkled upfront by keeping the pressure on the opposition defence. Against Ireland on Tuesday, India opted for one-to-one short passes to build their attacks, instead of going for aerial balls. Right-back <keyword id="20708828" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="jarmanpreet-singh" source="keywords">Jarmanpreet Singh</keyword> has been a revelation in the tournament so far and was omnipresent, be it in defence or creating chances from flanks. Another player who deserves credit is Amit Rohidas, who produced a rock solid performance at the back. He defended the penalty corners brilliantly being the first rusher and from one-on-one situations. But it is India's wall, goalkeeper PR Sreejesh, who is living up to his reputation in his Olympic swansong. He made multiple good saves against Ireland in the last two quarters to hand his side the win. After Belgium, India will end their pool engagements against nemesis Australia on Friday.

Quarters berth sealed, Indian men's hockey team set for first real test in Olympics against Belgium

Hangzhou [China], October 4 (ANI): Continuing its dominating performance, India men's <keyword id="1451" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="Hockey-Team" source="Orion">hockey team</keyword> defeated South Korea 5-3 in the semi-final to set up a summit clash at the <keyword id="84384" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="Asian-Games" source="Orion">Asian Games</keyword>. Hardik Singh (5'), Mandeep Singh (11'), Lalit Kumar Upadhyay (15'), Amit Rohidas (24') and Abhishek (54') scored to guide the Indian men's hockey team to the final. Jung Manjae (17', 20', 42') scored a hat-trick for South Korea, as per Olympics.com. The Indian men's hockey team will face the winner of the other semi-final match between China and Japan in the gold medal match on Friday. If India wins the final, it will be its fourth gold at the Asian Games and the team will book a place at Paris Olympics games next year. Earlier, the Craig Fulton-coached India had topped Pool A after winning all their group games. South Korea finished as Pool B runner-up. India, third in the men's FIH rankings, started the match positively and went ahead five minutes into the match. A deft passing move down the right carved open the Korean defence before Hardik Singh slotted home to put India ahead. Mandeep Singh could've doubled the advantage minutes later but the Indian forward, who had already scored 11 goals coming into the match, shot over the goal from close range. Mandeep, however, didn't have to wait long for his 12th goal of the tournament as he tapped in a Gurjant Singh pass to give India a 2-0 lead. Lalit Kumar Upadhyay added one more to India's tally before the first quarter ended. Jolted by the Indian hockey team's fiery start, four-time Asian Games hockey champions Korea found an early response in the second quarter as Jung Manjae scored two - the first from a clever penalty corner routine and the second from open play - to reduce the deficit to a single goal. Just when it looked that the Koreans had turned the tides in their favour, Amit Rohidas restored a two-goal cushion for India with a thunderous drag flick from a penalty corner. India led 4-2 at half-time. After the break, India looked the better of the two sides with Harmanpreet Singh running the play from deep. Despite the Indian dominance, it was South Korea who scored with Jung Manjae deflecting in from an indirect penalty corner to complete his hat-trick. South Korea came out of the blocks hard in search of an equaliser in the final quarter and put the Indian defence under pressure. The Indian backline rode out the siege before India finally found some breathing room thanks to Abhishek. Abhishek won the ball near the Korean circle before driving in through a powerful reverse hit. Up 5-3, India held on to secure the victory and make their way to the final.
