Hockey: India Among The Favourites In Paris, But There Are A Lot Of Problem Areas, Says Joaquim Carvalho
Tokyo Olympic Games: Indian hockey teams have always gone to the Olympic Games weighed down by huge expectations. In the last four decades, the team has had to live up to the gigantic legacy of eight gold medals that their peers have amassed in the quadrennial extravaganza since 1928.
The expectations from the men's team have grown manyfold since it won a historic bronze medal in the Tokyo Olympic Games. That medal has whetted our appetite and now the fans not only expect them to win another medal but also want it to be gold or silver.
In Paris, India are in a tough group with defending champions Belgium, Australia, Argentina, New Zealand, and Ireland as other teams. The first target for the team will be to finish in the top four and make it to the quarterfinals.
