Victorious of Canada, the Red Lions launch their World Cup smoothly



[ad_1]

The Red Lions were slightly shaken to win against Canada (2-1) in the opening match of the 2018 World Cup in Bhubaneswar, India.

At the controls of the meeting from the 3rd minute thanks to a nice tip-in of Felix Denayer, the Belgian hockey players did not have to force their talent to dictate the tempo against the 11th world nation.

In the second quarter time, Thomas Briels has also benefited from a beautiful service ofArthur Van Doren to double the bet (22 ').

But not everything was rosy either. If the men of Shane McLeod dominated this part, they did not manage to get away and scared themselves at the end of the meeting by seeing Canadians close the gap by Mark Pearson (48 ') on pc.

For the future, it will be much more effective, including penalty corner (0 conversion in 6 attempts against Canada).

The Red Lions will play two more games in this group C, against India (next Sunday at 14:30, Belgian time) and South Africa (Saturday, December 8 at 12:30, Belgian time).
