Clinical Pakistan Dominates New Zealand 4-0, Tops Pool D at Junior Hockey World Cup
In a clinical performance, Pakistan secured the top spot in Pool D by defeating New Zealand 4-0, despite the junior Black Sticks leading in match statistics. The opening goal came from Abdul Rehman, capitalizing on a turnover at a 16-yard hit, with Arshad Liaqat ultimately scoring. Liaqat's skills extended Pakistan’s lead to 2-0 with a late first-half goal, and captain Hannan Shahid's deflection from a penalty corner further strengthened their position. Liaqat completed his hat-trick with a reverse strike in the final minutes, sealing the victory. Liaqat, named Player of the Match, emphasized the importance of tightening their defense for the upcoming match against Belgium.
