India vs Belgium FIH Pro League Live Score Updates: India men’s and women’s hockey teams return to action in Antwerp on Thursday as they take on hosts Belgium in back-to-back matches at the FIH Pro League. First up, Salima Tete and Co will look to bounce back from a big defeat in their previous outing. Following that, Harmanpreet Singh’s side face a tough test on their road to Paris Olympics as they take on Tokyo 2020 gold medallists.
On Wednesday, the teams had mixed fortunes as they kicked off their European leg in the Pro League. Against world No 2 Argentina, Salima’s side were comfortably second best, as they lost 0-5. They conceded a goal each in the first three quarters and two in the final 15. Under returning head coach Harendra Singh, it was a tough start as they look to rebuild after the disappointment of not qualifying for Paris 2024.
The men’s team, however, played out a fighting 2-2 draw in regulation time against Argentina and then clinched a bonus point in the shootout. Read more about that match here.
The Indian teams will play four matches in the Antwerp mini tournament before finishing their season at the London leg immediately after.
