This is the fourth defeat in four matches on this tour of the Indian team. After this, India has to go to Belgium to play from Australia.
The video umpire ruled in favor of Argentina but India-led captain Hardik Singh asked the referee to investigate whether Argentina goalkeeper Tomas Santiago was ahead of Gol-Line before Jugraj’s stroke. This time India got a favorable decision from the video umpire. Jugraj was allowed to take stroke again, but this time Santiago saved his shot.
Regular captain Harmanpreet Singh is out due to finger injury, so Hardik led India. Argentina received eight penalty corners, while India got only three. India had to face 3-4 defeat to this rival on Wednesday earlier. The Olympic champions were lost to the Netherlands 1-2 and 2-3 during this European phase of India Pro League.
