PAKISTAN hockey lost Champions Trophy semifinal against the Netherlands 5-2.
Although hockey lovers had pinned hopes on the team, the semifinal proved too tough for Pakistan.
The Dutchmen kept pressure and we failed to capitalise moves.
However, overall performance of our hockey team was good and they deserve accolades from all quarters.
Well done, Pakistan hockey team. I wish them success and hope they will lift trophy next time.
