Champions Trophy: India defeates Pakistan

Indian beat Pakistan in Champions Trophy by 4 goals in the tournament opener.

Ramandeep Singh, Dilpreet Singh, Mandeep Singh and Lalit Upadhyay scored the goals from the Indian side.

Pakistan withdraws its goalkeeper at the last minute and this move gave an advantage to India to score last two goals at the last stage of the game.

India who never won a Champions Trophy title in hockey was looking to perform their best against their arch-rival Pakistan, who is looking to win the title for the fourth time.

In 2014 Pakistan faced India in the Champions Trophy in which Pakistan defeated India by 4-3 goals in the semi-final.
