Indian Hockey team has entered the FIH World Cup by crushing the arch-rival Pakistan by 4-1 but after the setback given by Australia, the Indian team will get on the ground against Spain in a must-win situation on Thursday night.

Even though, both the teams have lost one match each but it is all the more imperative for India to file a win against Spain. The world #3 may have been missing two of the biggest names in their line-up i. e. Santi Freixa and Eduardo Tubaubut, this Olympic-silver medallist team will not be in any mood to take it on their face.

Experts believe that the Indian hockey team would have worked on their mistakes they made against Australia and will not repeat the same in the match against Spain. Rajpal Singh and his men are facing the toughest situation in the race for the World Cup.

The coach of the Indian hockey team, Jose Brasa is very much confident of filing a win against Spain. But his logic of India defeated Pakistan and Pakistan defeated Spain, hence the chances of Indian defeating Spain are higher, may backfire if the team takes it lightly.
