Location: Paris, France – Day 13

Match Overview: The Indian men’s hockey team secured a
thrilling 2-1 victory over Spain to win the bronze medal at the Paris 2024
Olympics. The match was held at the Yves-du-Manoir Hockey Stadium, marking a
historic moment as India clinched back-to-back Olympic bronze medals for the
first time since 1972.

Match Highlights:

First Half:
- Spain took the lead through captain Marc Miralles, who converted a
  penalty stroke in the 18th minute.
- India equalized just before halftime, with captain Harmanpreet Singh
  scoring from a penalty corner in the 30th minute.
Second Half:
- Harmanpreet Singh struck again in the 33rd minute, giving India a
  2-1 lead with his tenth goal of the tournament.
- Despite intense pressure from Spain in the final quarter, India’s
  defense, led by goalkeeper PR Sreejesh, held firm. Sreejesh made several
  crucial saves, including two in the final minutes of his international
  career.

Significance:

Historical Achievement: This victory marks India’s 13th
Olympic medal in hockey, adding to their rich legacy with eight golds, one
silver, and now four bronze medals.
PR Sreejesh’s Farewell: The match served as a fitting
farewell for veteran goalkeeper PR Sreejesh, who retired after an
illustrious 18-year international career. Sreejesh’s exceptional performance
was instrumental in securing the win.
Back-to-Back Medals: India’s consecutive bronze medals
in Tokyo 2020 and Paris 2024 are the first since their back-to-back bronzes
in 1968 and 1972.

Post-Match Reactions:

Harmanpreet Singh: "We create history again,
back-to-back (bronze medals). It’s a big day for India and a big day for
hockey. Everyone delivered, especially our legend Sreejesh. It was his last
game. It’s a memorable game for him, and a big achievement as a team."
PR Sreejesh: His emotional farewell was marked by his
teammates’ celebrations and tributes, acknowledging his contribution to
Indian hockey.
