Sukhjeet Singh is one of the five debutants — Sanjay, Abhishek, Rajkumar Pal, and Jarmanpreet Singh — who have joined the 11 members of Tokyo Olympic bronze medalist team for the Paris Games.

Harmanpreet’s men, who chose to skip the opening ceremony to concentrate on the match at the Yves-du-Manoir Stadium, will be vying to improve their medal colour in Paris

It predated hockey’s Games debut and after 100 years, it will incidentally host the same sport; Harmanpreet sees this as motivation and wants to make it all the more memorable by winning gold

Lucas Martinez gave Argentina the lead in the 22nd minute before Harmanpreet converted India's 10th and last penalty corner to pick up a crucial point from the game.

With two wins and a draw, India has gathered seven points from three matches and has almost made it to the quarterfinals.

Harmanpreet, Sukhjeet, Lalit Upadhyay and Raj Kumar Pal scored for India in the shootout, which had more drama in store than one expects in pure action.

“Sreejesh is a legend, he is one of the best we have. He is saving us from day one. But when you ask him, he will say it was a team effort, so team first, then individuals,” said Harmanpreet.

The Indian team was successful in its ‘win it for Sreejesh’ campaign to make the stalwart’s last dance a memorable one before carrying him on their shoulders like a victorious warrior.

For its rich history and the folklore stuff Indian hockey has provided for 96 years in the Olympics, it is not surprising when the countrymen react emotionally to an Olympic high.
