Austrian men target three-peat as first-time women champion guaranteed

Porec (Croatia), Feb 9 (UNI) Austria’s men will be gunning for a third straight crown at the FIH Indoor Hockey World Cup when they come up against Germany in the final on Sunday while there will be a guaranteed first-time winner of the women’s title as the Austrian women’s team take on Poland.
The first of the men’s semifinals, played here on Saturday, produced a contest between German structure and South African flair, with the Germans prevailing 6-1. The scoreline was a slightly flattering one for the Germans with a flurry of late goals, but their suffocating press and uncompromising defence were what set up the victory.
They also finished well, while South Africa couldn’t find the target despite some excellent opportunities when the game was still in the balance.
