Host nation India and World Cup Bronze medallists Argentina set up an entertaining and emotional encounter with both teams scoring twice within the same minute. However, Argentina got the better end of this pool B match of the Hero Hockey Champions Trophy taking away the three points because of the late strikes from Agustin Mazzilli and Joaquin Menini.

Pushed forward by the enthusiastic crowd of 7,500 spectators in the Kalinga Stadium in Bhubaneswar India created a row of chances in the first quarter. They came up dangerously in the Argentine circle in the early stages but their opening goal was disallowed as the ball hadn’t travelled the required distance before it was brought into the circle.
