Olympics 2004- Hockey

the whole team couldnt stop this one guy :grumpy:

We wont be out of it but we will other results going our way.

well its over for us now..no point cryin. Once again we will be in the league of worthless lousy nations who cant win a single olympic medal

Great!

Well unless Pak salvage at least a draw now, and if Ger beat Gbr (at present 1-0) then we are out as Ger will be on 10 pts, Spa on 8 with only Egy to play.

^ I hope Germany dont get full points against GBR and even a loss would be welcome.

its 4-0 now. Pakistan must score one or two goals to keep its goal average intact.

Spanish team came into the field vs Pak, their homework done well!

Koreans and GBR must draw with Germans and Pakistan beat GBR. We will be through then :(

4 ESP
Eduardo Tubau (FG) 05:28
Eduardo Tubau (FG) 34:15
Eduardo Tubau (FG) 40:51
Santiago Freixa (FG) 62:52

0 PAK

65:55 Tubau almost scores his 4th goal, missing the left pst by an inch after a break down the right from ESP. ESP strikers are in incredible form at present, getting numbers around the ball very quickly when there is a fast break.

62:52 Goal
Freixa seals the game for ESP with a strike from close-in on the right after a cross from the left backline. ESP 4-0.
61:56 Another corner for ESP from a PAK foot after a clever overhead pass into the circle. ESP corner number 6. The drag flick by Freixa goes wide.

60:40 ESP move into their circle down the right and they earn their 5th corner for the game from a lifted ball off Akbar (PAK GK). The attempted deflection by Alegre goes wide, and the score remains at 3-0.
59:28 Its a great game. PAK are desperate all over the ground, throwing themselves into trying to work the ball into the circle. No corners yet for PAK, which is a testement to just how well the ESP defence has played tonight.
54:50 PAK are trying to mount attacking moves from their defensive half and once again ESP defence is rock solid, slowing the PAK midfieldeers down and also stopping PAK entering their attacking circle.

67:40 ESP corner. Number 7. The Ribas flick is wide right. The one thing ESP will not be happy with is their 7 corners for no goals.

65:55 Tubau almost scores his 4th goal, missing the left pst by an inch after a break down the right from ESP. ESP strikers are in incredible form at present, getting numbers around the ball very quickly when there is a fast break.

Whenever we have some great initial success, a setback is bound to happen. I noticed this in almost all the tournaments. We just don't finish with a high note.

Commentators are saying that Pakistan still has an outside chance but they will need atleast two draws for contending teams. But Pakistan never showed enough mental strength today. They were panicking, they got three to four good chances but never finished.

goliko..just tell us soon that the last paki boxer is out as well..laanat bhaijo olympics per

Well in theory Pak could still qualify but HIGHLY unlikely. Korea would have to not beat Ger and thus end on 7 or 8 points, and Esp lose or draw to Egy (impossible) and Pak beat Gbr with at least 4 goal margin. So the contenders from our pool are Ger, Kor and Esp for the semis round. Pity! I was really hoping this time we would get gold.

Pakistani Team is doing their best to not deny people in South Asia a match with India.

You have pretty much summed it up. We were on track for Gold, specially the way we played against Koreans but we messed it up big time tonight.

This is heart breaking.

It´s over. :(

Pakistan finishes another Olympics without a medal.

Spain 3 Egypt 0..Pakistan out...
