Indian men hockey gets defeated by Belgium 5-2; wins million's heart

So close and yet so far. Indian men hockey team went down fighting. They lost the match but won the heart.

Indian hockey never had a chance in this Olympic. They seemed to be the shadow of the old hockey power house of the world. But after this Olympic, hockey shall not be the same in India.

Thank You Boys for making us glue to the TV sets, you showed that India can compete with the best in the world. Today, Belgium defeated India 5-2 but hockey won. If you leave out the last quarter, the match was evenly fought.

Even Bronze medal can be more sweeter than the gold. #bestwishes

Interestingly, this is India's third consecutive loss to Belgium in the

Olympics
