France vs Pakistan | Semi Final 1 | FIH Nations Hockey Cup | Full Match Highlights
Transcript
00:00Semi-final here today of the Men's Nations Cup. New Zealand taking on Korea for the right to take on Pakistan in tomorrow night's final.
00:23This semi-final is underway looking for the right to take on Pakistan at this same venue at the same time roughly tomorrow.
00:35We've got an indication that Korea might just be sitting on things defensively as that nearly finds its way through to Jonty Elms in the circle.
00:46Boyd, two ahead of him. That's beautifully done. Boyd's pass, Elms goal. Lovely goal on the break by New Zealand.
00:58Jonty Elms first strike of this tournament.
01:01And it started with excellent defensive play from Woods back in his own corner.
01:10And a quick transition. Great pass coming in from Boyd and a lovely little deflection from Jonty Elms.
01:21No chance for Jahan. He's got to follow the trajectory of the ball. That makes him vulnerable to such a deflection.
01:33He's got Boyd with him. Baker goes on his own and Baker padded away. Comfortable save in the end for Jahan.
01:42It's a great piece of skill there by Dayeen.
01:50Fired away. Brought down wonderfully well. Will it go all the way? No it won't. Goalkeeper Dixon has done a sterling job there.
01:58Fired in. Boyd. Oh, it's come off Dylan Thomas.
02:05Still not being enticed out.
02:13So New Zealand, this is, oh now they are.
02:16Finlay. Caught in possession. It's a terrific run.
02:20Jahan does well.
02:22Hee-haw can come forward to Dylan Thomas.
02:26Thomas into the circle. Still Thomas.
02:29Oh, I say. That's a gorgeous goal by Dylan Thomas.
02:35Weaved his way in from the sideline.
02:39Penetrated the circle.
02:42Some dexterous stick work and then a lovely little flick finish.
02:48Pretty, pretty goal.
02:50Over the stick shoulder of the goalkeeper who was maybe tempted to look inside for George Baker.
03:07Dylan Thomas, the Hawke's Bay striker.
03:11It is indeed Lim.
03:15Who's equalised.
03:17Well, he's pulled one back anyway.
03:192-1.
03:21And that's just a little bit slack from the Black Sticks.
03:29Lim Doe-Hun's fourth goal of the competition.
03:35Here's the second batterie. Just angles it into the bottom corner.
03:39Nicely done. It's on the goalkeeper's side.
03:44Dixon's got to shift his weight.
03:47Never easy for a goalkeeper to do that.
03:50Lim Doe-Hun.
03:53Pulls Korea back into the game.
03:56Ai-Sung lifts it over.
03:57They've used the aerial a lot in tight spaces.
04:00Kim Jin closed down.
04:07Let.
04:09Quite clear. Penalty corner.
04:12They worked really, really hard to keep the ball in the circle.
04:19He's at the second battery. They go to the front man.
04:24Oh, and they've got the equaliser as well.
04:27Oh, my word.
04:30Talk about lethal from the penalty corner.
04:33Very much second best for the two-penalty corner.
04:44Specialist Yang Ji-Hun and Lim Doe-Hun have pulled them back.
04:48And that's beautifully positioned.
04:55Away from Dixon.
04:59And away from the front runner as well.
05:03Findlay has done well.
05:04Great stick work from Findlay.
05:07Needed to do that.
05:08Stop Keogum getting possession.
05:10Woods.
05:11Findlay.
05:12Round the corner.
05:13Baker.
05:15Still Baker.
05:20He's got Baker alongside of him.
05:22He leaves it for Findlay.
05:24Findlay has got Baker ahead.
05:26Here is Baker.
05:28Baker couldn't convert.
05:32Last seconds.
05:34Last touch of the ball.
05:36And a big chance for George Baker to win it for New Zealand.
05:43Baker's out very quickly.
05:46That's a stick check.
05:48He surely brings his man down.
05:56We're going to go for review here.
05:58Becker was very physical on the back there of Sung Min.
06:01What's your...
06:02And Boyd is blocked.
06:03That's excellent goaltending.
06:07Be aware that Beckett is off his line.
06:23Lightning quick.
06:25Nice young pulls it wide.
06:27Well, Beckett's histrionics are working well for New Zealand at the moment.
06:42Slammed it into the back boards.
06:44Advantage New Zealand.
06:48Again, Beckett out very quickly.
06:50Nicely done by Min Soo.
06:53Korea on the board.
06:55Nicely done by Phillips.
06:57Little swivel up the hips.
06:58Nice little dance move.
