India vs Belgium LIVE Men's Hockey Semifinals Updates and Score

With the javelin throw qualifications coming to an end, follow the blog for the men's hockey semifinal where our men take on mighty Belgium from the link above.

That's the end of javelin throw qualifications. Annu Ranni crashes out and misses out on making it into the finals after managing a high score of 54.04m only. She was far from her career-best of 61.12m. A score similar to her career-best would give her the 4th position in qualifiers as only three shots were more than that score. Her score of 54.04m occupies the 14th position and it is all over for her at the Tokyo Olympics.

It's been a tough outing for our Indian hero, and qualification for her will not be possible!

Reka Szilagyi gets 57.39 as her best to scrape through to the final 12 of the group A of qualification.

Sara Kolka fails to get even one legal throw and she will bow out with a no mark as she managed to get no score. She will not be happy with that.

58.19 for Elizabeth Gleadle who could make it through, by the narrowest of margins.

Vucenovic has her best og 58.93 to show for herself. Will that be enough to make it through? Remember, only the top 12 can go through.

Anete Kocina ends up with a highest of 58.84 and her position could be dicey if the others can better her score.

That will be it for Annu Rani. She remains at the 14th position in the group and fails to qualify for finals.

Kara Winger next, bags in a 58.51 but has her best of 59.71 to depend on.

Just a 54.04 for Annu Rani in her final attempt, and that will not be nearly enough to push her to the top 12
