Robbert Kemperman scored twice and the Netherlands held on for a 3-2 win over England on Thursday at the Champions Trophy men’s field hockey tournament.

Kemperman scored in the fourth minute and again in the 49th to give the Dutch a 3-1 lead before Richard Smith’s goal 10 minutes later pulled England back to within one goal.

Earlier, South Korea overcame a 5-1 deficit to draw 5-5 with Spain, thanks to reserve Nam Hyun-woo scoring three goals in seven minutes off penalty corners.

Undefeated Australia was to play Germany later Thursday, and a win by the defending champion and hosts would ensure them a place in Sunday’s gold medal final.
