India lost their first match of the Belgium tour on 4th 3-6. However the team came back to win 4-3 in the second match. The third match will be played on 7th august.
The performance of the team is far from encouraging in this Europe tour.
Though coach Jose Brasa said this tour is for development and not winning, but still losing the series against Britain and conceding 6 goals against Belgium in the first game doesn't give much hope of a drastic change in the next one year, when they are to play commonwealth games and world cup both to be hosted in India and the Asian Games later.
However the more difficult thing than the players performing on the pitch seems to be find out any news about Indian hockey. There is almost no information about this series anywhere in the web. The Belgian hockey website gives this minimum news about the results.
