Digital Desk: The Indian hockey team achieved a remarkable victory over the Great Britain team, securing a spot in the semi-finals of the Paris Olympics. 

Despite facing the challenge of playing with one man down for 42 minutes after Amit Rohidas received a red card for an incident involving a GB player, India managed to force a penalty shootout.

Following Rohidas' expulsion, India took a 1-0 lead in the game. However, Great Britain scored just before halftime, leveling the score at 1-1. The intense competition continued, with both teams unable to break the deadlock by the end of the regulation 60 minutes. 

It was India's captain, Harmanpreet Singh, who ultimately secured the victory by scoring from a penalty corner, marking his seventh goal at the Paris 2024 Olympics.

Despite the match ending in a 1-1 tie at full-time, India secured their spot in the semi-finals by emerging victorious in the shoot-out with a score of 4-2.
