CHENNAI: For the second successive day, it turned out to be a deluge of goals. The St. Joseph’s-TNHA junior National men’s hockey championship at the Mayor Radhakrishnan Stadium here on Tuesday saw 77 goals being scored to the 80 converted on the opening day. The host topped the list on Tuesday. Tamil Nadu’s 24-0 drubbing of Gujarat signified the upper-hand the stronger outfits continue to enjoy. With two big-margin wins from Pool ‘A’, Tamil Nadu is in a comfortable position, but it has a difficult match against Bihar. Easy win
Air-India showed its might with an 11-0 victory over Kerala. Innocent Kullu opened the account for Air-India quite early with a perfectly executed penalty corner. Air-India pressed hard and a fine pass from the centre Vinod Kumar saw Mayank James picking the ball on the run and scooping it past the goalkeeper. Air-India, which led 5-0 at half-time, marched ahead with a single point agenda of scoring and with a Kerala defence readily willing, the Mumbai team did not have to strain much. The results: Pool ‘C’: Mizoram 5 (Lalringhetha 4 (hat-trick), Lal Rinnuga) bt Madhya Pradesh 0; Haryana 4 (Vinod Kumar, Rohit Singh, Sandeep Kumar, Ved Prakash) bt Hyderabad 1 (Santhosh Kumar). Pool ‘A’: Bihar 16 (Nirmal Dhan 3, Md. Riyazuddin 5, Prabhu Bara, Bhim Kumar 2, Amrendra Kumar, Birsu Bhengra 2, Raja Singh Rana 2) bt Madhya Bharath 1 (Hakim Singh); Tamil Nadu 24 (Vinod Rayer 4, S. Vivek, Peter Alan Rajes h, Heartlin Hames 7, Shyam Kumar 3, Laxman Karan 7 (hat-trick), Saravana Kumar) bt Gujarat 0. Pool ‘E’: Delhi 4 (Kulwant, Munda, Mehtab, Vikas Sharma) bt Chhattisgarh 2 (Navid Shamsh, Fuzel Ahamed); Air-India 11 (Innocent Kullu, Mayank James, Ashish Minz 2, Vinod Kumar 2, Pramod Dhir 2, Danis Mujtaba, Md. Imran, Arj un Antil) bt Kerala 0. Pool ‘G’: Chandigarh 6 (Ranjodh Singh 2, Vreedimder Singh, Dharamvir Singh 2, Harmanbreet Shanga) bt Andhra Pradesh 3 (Lakshman Rao, Sandeep Raju 2).
