India and the Netherlands will lock horns in the second quarterfinal of the FIH Hockey Men's Junior Hockey World Cup on Tuesday, December 12. The winner of the match will advance to the semi-final stage.
While the Dutch topped Pool D with seven points, including wins against Belgium and New Zealand and a draw against Pakistan, India were placed second in Pool C. The boys in blue registered convincing victories against Korea and Canada but went down to table toppers Spain in their second encounter.
India have netted 15 goals so far in the tournament, including 10 field goals and five converted from the penalty corners - the fourth-highest by a team in the biennial event behind Germany (15), Spain (19), and Belgium (20). Uttam Singh's men will look to improve their defence when they face a formidable opponent in the Netherlands.
India has lifted the men's junior World Cup twice in 2005 and 2016. The Netherlands are chasing their maiden title in this edition, and India should be wary of their threat. Let's take a look at the match details for the India vs Netherlands quarterfinal below.
