India lose to Argentina by 5-0

RIO DE JANERIO, Aug 13:
The Indian women’s hockey team suffered a humiliating 0-5 loss against higher-ranked Argentina in their final Pool B fixture to end their campaign at the Rio Olympics here today.
Martina Cavallero (16th minute, 29th), Maria Granatto (23rd), Carla Rebecchi (26th) and Agustina Albertarrio (27th) scored for Argentina, while India drew a blank to slump to their fourth successive loss in the Rio Games at the Olympic hockey centre here.
With this loss, India finished their six-team Pool B campaign on a disappointing note after returning to women’s Olympic hockey since their 1980 appearance. (PTI)
