Paris Olympic Games: Member of the 1980 gold medal-winning Indian team, M.M Somaya said the defensive tactics promoted by the Indian team's head coach Craig Fulton were successful as the team won a second successive medal in the Olympics on Thursday.

India defeated Spain 2-1 in the bronze medal match in the Paris Olympic Games, riding on a brace of goals by skipper Harmanpreet Singh and some brilliant saves by goalkeeper P.R Sreejesh in the bronze medal match in Paris, adding another bronze to the one they bagged in Tokyo.

Somaya said the team has reaped the rewards of Fulton's tactics of building on the defense and the mental toughness provided by Paddy Upton.
