The Tribune: Hockey juniors post second win over Scotland

Marlow (England)

India’s junior men’s team continued its good run with a 5-1 thrashing of Scotland in the second game. India took the lead through Ajay Yadav. Thereafter, Indian goalkeeeper Suraj Karkera pulled off two smart saves to deny Scotland the equaliser heading into the first break. Yadav capitalised on some slack Scotland defending to extend India’s lead. India won a stroke early in the third quarter and Varun Kumar made no mistake from the spot. Varun scored his second goal in the final quarter. Gurjant added a fifth to India’s tally. Scotland’s William Marshall scored a goal in the dying minutes.
