When the Indian hockey team left for Athens, the country was hopeful that it would return with a medal. Sadly, it finished seventh, as in Sydney years ago. For the team's new chief coach, the German Gerhard Rach, his first major assignment was a task too hot to handle, as some players openly voiced their displeasure about the strategies he adopted. It resulted in the team turning out shoddy performances through the tournament before redeeming itself with a handsome victory over South Korea in its concluding match. What do you think went wrong for the team? Was the German coach's strategy flawed, or was it the inability of the players to deliver? Before the official post-mortems and blame games begin, here's a chance to have your say. - Post your comments Previous Message Boards:
