Defending champions India’s dream of a second consecutive Junior Hockey World Cup title was shattered on Friday as six-time winners Germany defeated the hosts 2-4 here.
In the final on Sunday, Germany will be up against Argentina, who beat France 3-1 in penalty shootout in the first semi-final. The Indians, who last won the Junior World Cup title in Lucknow in 2016, looked a pale shadow of themselves against Germany.
