Germany successfully defended their Olympic hockey title when they beat Holland 2-1 in a thrilling and exciting Olympic men's field hockey final Staurday night.
Both goals were scored by Jan Philipp Rabente, who thus denied the Dutch their dream of becoming the first nation to win both hockey golds at the same Games.
It may be added that Holland had a smooth sailing in the group matches and even beat Germany and they were hoping to snatch the gold from defending chmapions Germany this time.
The defeat thus equalises the Dutch's earlier edge over the Germans and let the Germans ge away with their second successive Olympic gold.
