Paris 2024 Olympic Games opening game for IRL Men’s Hockey ends in defeat
OLYMPIC GAMES HOCKEY/ POOL B: BELGIUM 2 IRELAND 0
PARIS: Ireland opened their account in Pool B of the Paris 2024 Olympic Games with their third competitive match of 2024 against World Ranked #3 and with two FIH PRO League wins from two in their previous meetings. Belgium, the reigning Olympic champions, had finished a disappointing 5th in the recent FIH Pro League, one in which they went in as possible favourites to win, Ireland finished 9th in their debut outing at that level. Belgium were also finalists in the last Men’s World Cup so the weight of expectation was heavy on their shoulders. However, the Belgians were not burdened by those expectations and secured a solid 2-0 victory.
