IND vs KOR hockey match Asian Champions Trophy 2024 Live: Unbeaten India will take on Korea in the second semifinal of the 2024 Asian Champions Hockey Tournament. Before their match, in the other semifinal, Pakistan face China.
Back-to-back Olympic bronze medallists India are in red-hot form as they have registered five wins in the tournament. Harmanpreet Singh-led India have defeated China 3-0, trounced Japan 5-1 and Malaysia 8-1, then edged past Korea 3-1 and arch-rivals Pakistan 2-1 with the last two matches being tougher tests. India have been led by the in-form drag flick star Harmanpreet Singh who stepped up with two goals each in the last two matches.
Harmanpreet, one of the best drag flickers in the world currently, has continued his form from Paris Olympics, converting as many as five penalty corners overall. The strikers have shown that they have paid attention to scoring field goals and the forwards Sukhjeet Singh, Abhishek, Uttam Singh, Gurjot Singh, Araijeet Singh Hundal have done well.
The Indian defence too has performed stoutly, conceding just four goals with goalkeepers Krishan Bahadur Pathak and Suraj Karkera showing they are ready to take on from where the legendary PR Sreejesh left. Yet, Korea can surprise any team on their day as they showed with an equaliser on the hooter to draw 3-3 against Malaysia that helped them get into the semi-final. The Indian defence will also have to watch out and not concede too many penalty corners as Jihun Yang, the tournament’s leading scorer with seven goals, is in great form.
