India played out a 1-1 draw in their final match of the 6 Nations invitational hockey tournament here.
India started off on the front foot, very early in the game and had a penalty corner as early as the 5th minute, which was saved by Quico Cortes in Spain's goal. The action shifted ends very quickly though.
From the counterattack, Spain earned a penalty corner which brought out a sharp save from Sreejesh.
From there though, Spain started exerting a bit of control over the game and soon made the pressure count. A penalty corner was saved on the line by Sreejesh before an infringement off a defender, earned Spain a stroke. Pau Quemada scored to give Spain the lead as they went into the break.
India came out much the same in the second quarter, constantly probing, pushing and earning penalty corners, but Cortes was always up to the task, deflecting it away with sharp saves. In the 18th minute though, Raghunath finally made one count, breaking through to draw the teams level. With seconds to play, India would come closest to getting the lead, but the effort hit the crossbar and fell safely to leave the two teams with an equal share of the points.
