Olympics Hockey: Pakistan beat South Africa 5-4

What was thought to be a rather easy match for Pakistan, the South Africans really made it difficult for the green shirts to overpower them in the Pool A  match of men's filed hockey event of Olympics, Sunday today.

It were the last two golals in the lst six minutes that first equalised the score 4-4 and then brought victory to Pakistan.

Waseem Ahmed’s field goal three minutes from the end clinched victory after captain Sohail Abbas had converted a penalty corner in the 64th minute to neutralise South Africa’s lead in the Pool A contest.

Pakistan with four matches has 7 points while Australia and GB have 7 points after three matches and have an edge over the green shirts so far.

In the two matches today:
Britain plays Australia at 18:00 GMT 
Argentina plays Spain  at 20:15 GMT
