Match Report: India 'choke' against New Zealand amid high drama to exit title race

An Indian team in utter disbelief choked amid high drama at the Hockey World Cup as New Zealand stunned the hosts in sudden-death to move into the quarterfinals and relegate the Tokyo Olympics bronze medallist to play the placement matches in Rourkela. Leading twice by two goals -- 2-0 first and then 3-1, the Indian defence failed to withstand the pressure exerted by New Zealand who beat India at their game to come back and end the 60 minutes at 3-3. The penalty shootout also ended 3-3, and the game entered sudden death, as the crowd slowly moved to the edge of their seats and waited with bated breath.
