India finished the nine-team league in eighth spot, just one above bottom-placed Pakistan

After India lost a video referral, Pakistan captain Abu Bakar Mahmood converted a drag-flick to put his side 1-0 ahead.

Dilpreet Singh (10’ and 58’) scored for India, while David Goodfield (29’) and Nicholas Bandurak (56’) netted for England.

However, India nearly botched their comfortable lead as Pakistan’s Abu Mahmood (53’) and Moin Shakeel (60’) whittled down the Men in Blue’s three-goal cushion

It will also be the first time that India and Pakistan will lock horns against each other since the Asian Champions Trophy clash in Hulunbuir, China, in 2024 which India won 2-1

India remained unbeaten throughout, defeating USA (3-2), Japan (2-1), and Uruguay (3-2) in the Pool A matches, before routing Chile 6-0 in the semis. Fernandis appreciated this consistency

Jugraj Singh, Abhishek, and Rajinder Singh scored for India, while Pepijn van der Heijden and Koen Bijen netted for the Dutch

India extended their lead to 3-0 when Nilakanta took on the German defenders in a solo run and slotted the ball into the goal.

A brilliant brace from Deepika and a goal from Deepika Soreng guided India to a 3-2 comeback victory over Uruguay, securing a spot in the FIH Nations Cup semifinals


Miles Bukkens (3rd min), Koen Bijen (23rd), and Tijmen Reyenga (40th) scored for the home side. For India, Dilpreet Singh (10th) and Sukhjeet Singh (33rd) got onto the scoresheet
