Goals galore on Day 1 as FIH Hockey Nations Cup 2 begins
The opening day of the inaugural edition of the FIH Hockey Men’s Nations Cup 2 Oman 2025 got off to a blistering start with all 8 teams in action across 4 games that saw a combined total of 25 goals scored! In Pool A Egypt and Poland got off to winning starts, with both sides claiming three points in close encounters against China and Chile respectively. The scoreline in Poland’s 4-0 win over Chile was particularly deceptive with the game hanging on a knife’s edge until a late flurry by the Polish side. In Pool B, USA and Austria faced off in another tight battle with USA impressing in attack, but their failure to convert on a plethora of big chances meant they had to rely on their equally amazing defence in the final quarter to come away 1-0 winners. The last game of the day saw hosts Oman face off against Scotland in what turned out to be a one-sided contest with the visitors stunning the hosts with a huge 10-1 win.
