Defeat to Argentina for GB’s women



Great Britain and Argentina came into this game both looking to improve their position in the pool ahead of the quarter finals. The match also saw two milestones with Sarah Robertson winning her 100th cap for Great Britain and Tess Howard her 100th combined cap for GB and England. After an entertaining but goalless first half, the game turned with three pieces of superb individual finishing from Argentina, with goals from Raposo and Albertarrio in the third quarter.  The victory was sealed with a third from Diaz in the final quarter.
