Hockeyroos secure spot in World Cup semi-finals
- On Sunday in Amstelveen, The Netherlands, India's FIH World Cup campaign ended following a 0-0 draw against Australia. Australia advanced to the semifinals based on a superior goal count, eliminating India from contention.
- Following a 0-2 loss to The Netherlands, India required a victory to secure a semifinal spot. The team previously enjoyed an unbeaten group stage, including a 6-1 thrashing of South Africa.
- While India struggled to capitalize on scoring opportunities, Australia's defense proved resolute. Two Australian goals were ruled out for dangerous play, and India failed to convert a penalty corner just before half-time.
- Finishing third in the Group, the Salima Tete-led side missed the last-four stage. India will now compete in the fifth-sixth classification match after failing to breach the Australian defense during the final stretch.
- Replacing the goalkeeper with an outfielder, India could not find the elusive goal during their late efforts. The loss marks their exit at the Wagener Stadion as their semifinal hopes faded.
