India aims to elevate their performance as they face Ireland in their third Pool B match of the men’s hockey competition at the Paris Olympics on Tuesday. Captain Harmanpreet Singh has been crucial, scoring late goals to secure a win and a draw in India’s previous matches. In their opener, India defeated New Zealand 3-2, with Harmanpreet netting a penalty stroke in the final minutes. He again delivered under pressure, converting a penalty corner in the penultimate minute to equalise 1-1 against Argentina.
Despite being favourites against Ireland, India is cautious. Ireland has lost both their matches so far, falling 2-0 to Belgium and narrowly losing 2-1 to Australia, showing resilience against top teams. India will not underestimate the Irish challenge.
