Hockey National Cship: Odisha win the title with a 5-1 win against Haryana in the final- Highlights

End of Q1, Odisha 1-0 Haryana

Both teams started slowly but the game became wide open after the first goal. 

Haryana have shown they can comeback into the game and therefore this match is by no means over. 

Q1, Now Odisha misses a PC opportunity

The match has burst into life in the last few minutes after a cagey opening, with Odisha missing a PC and squandering a chance to make it 2-0! 

Q1, PC wasted by Haryana!

Haryana had the chance to make an immediate response from a PC but they scuffed it with miscued hits, and the opportunity gets wasted. 

Q1, Akash Tirkey gives Odisha the lead in the final!

Eleven minutes in and Odisha have their noses in front! 

A scrappy goal at that but they won't mind one bit as they draw first blood in the final! 

Q1, Still nothing from the two teams

As with any final, this too has been a cagey affair in the first quarter, with 6 minutes to go for the end of the first quarter. 

Q1, Cautious start from both teams

Odisha did have an early chance but apart from that, the opening 5 minutes have been pretty cautious from both sides. 

The final is underway!
