In 1970 the first hockey world cup was to be played in Pakistan. India due to tensions with Pakistan refused to travel & play. The world cup was shifted to Spain, where Pakistan became 1st ever champions. Politics aside, @FIH_Hockey should v seen this one.

interpretation of foul as per rules when an aerial ball is received. Clearly the great Britain player had the defending Pakistan player close by and less then 5 meters.

Great Britain player according to @FIH_Hockey rules should have been blown for a foul. He took the ball down into an area where there was a defender close to him and obviously not 5 meters away. This created a danger situation and should have been blown for a foul. As per rule.

Controversial 3rd goal by GB which led to yellow card being shown to Sufyan after umpire rejected a referral from being taken. Two questions @ad_grays 1. Why referral was turned down despite Pakistan having one. 2. Did the attacker take up position before the defendant? Ur take?

Sufyan, can't believe he let the whole team down at the end. They got a penalty corner right after he was shown a yellow card. If he was on the pitch the match could have been tied. Whole match I noticed Pakistan kept appealing more and keeping an eye on the play less.

GB has defended with there bare bones against Pakistan today. It wasn't an easy cake in the walk to play against Pakistan and win. Close game and quiet a few chances from open play missed by Pakistan. You need to use ur chances to win matches. Hard luck. But this team has it all.

That's poor by Sufyan. U cant argue with umpire. He could have had further chance to equalise the game if he had not been shown a yellow

Sufyan finally delivers with a goal to tie the match with Great Britain. Great Britain is one man down as well who was shown a yellow card for deliberately stopping the ball at top of D with his leg. So Pakistan has a man advantage in final 5 min of match. @FIH_Hockey

Add Ali raza Pakistan goal keeper to the list of upcoming amazing player for Pakistan. What a stop it was. Out of this world.

This was much better positioning by hanan Shahid which led to him scoring a goal. He has the capability but he's scoring far less then he should be as a forward.

Have been seeing this again and again, hanan Shahid stealing the ball or free wheeling into the D and then either hurries it to much by striking the ball into the goal keepers pads or is lacking situational awareness resulting in no goal.

What a miss infront of the goal. Now u can't blame just coaching for this.

How the Europeans score goals once they enter the D as opposed to Pakistan, who feel clueless at times with the final touch missing.

Muhammad Ahmed this is an upcoming young player to watch out for. He adds depth to the mid and forward lines and the way he weaves and dodges through his opponents is amazing to watch.

Great come back to equalise by Pakistan against Australia. 3-3 at the Sultan of Johor cup. Pakistan will be playing off for the bronze medal match. It was a patience build up by the Pakistan team leading to a goal @FIH_Hockey

The trapping of the ball at top of D is crucial for the penalty corner drag flick. Two mistakes at important phase of the game were costly for Pakistan at the Sultan of Johor cup 2025 against newzeland.

Commentator Ashley morrison reminiscing about his own Pakistani hockey coach (Nassem Hayat) who had a big influence on his life. Credit goes to Ashley for all the work he's done over the year for promotion of hockey over all.

Sufyan scores his 8th goal of tournament and Pakistans 2nd goal against new Zealand from penalty corner. The ball seemingly came off the post and into the goal. Unstoppable Sufyan at sultan of Johor cup 2025 @FIH_Hockey

An eg.of mid play transitioning to attacking forward player. However, hanan Shahid could not finish it off, with only the goal keeper to beat. Hanan has the ability to score more goals but time and again his final touch has been elusive inside the attacking D.

Pakistan at the Sultan of Johor cup has displayed outstanding defence in penalty corners. Similarly the midfield play linking up with the forward line has been exemplary.
