Delmee remains successful: Pro League Hockey prey for the Netherlands | Sport

sport">It was also not easy in the second game of the weekend in Rotterdam against India, which is third. Contrary to Saturday (2-2), the win was now in regular time.

sport">India already scored in the 1st minute, via Abhishek. From a penalty corner, Jip Janssen equalized about 5 minutes later. Early in the second quarter, Harmanpreet Singh had a good chance to give India the lead again via a penalty shot, but goalkeeper Maurits Visser took the bet.

sport">From another penalty corner, this time a variant, Jorrit Croon gave Orange the lead. In the second game of the weekend, the Netherlands did not give it away. On Saturday, India equalized from a penalty corner in the final seconds of regular time. The Orange then won after shoot-outs.

sport">The Orange scored 36 points from 14 matches, Belgium and India 35 and 30 from 16 matches respectively.

Fresh and clear

sport">Goal scorer Janssen was happy with his goal, the victory over India and the title in the Pro League. According to the 24-year-old international, a lot has changed since the disappointing Olympic Games in Tokyo last summer, when the Orange squad stranded in the quarterfinals. “It is now fresh and clear and that takes us far,” said Janssen at Ziggo Sport. “It is also a nice group, everyone is good with each other. That also helps. This is a first step, but we are really not there yet.”

sport">Janssen celebrated his striking effort from a penalty corner with a shout, perhaps also partly due to his involvement in India’s opening goal. “Glad you can straighten it out, yes.” He called his hit “important”. Now he and the rest of the squad are going to enjoy themselves and then prepare for the last two games in the Pro League, next weekend against Spain. “That’s the next opportunity to grow further.”
