KUALA LUMPUR: India have not beaten South Korea in hockey for the last five years. Now, the Indians believe the time has come to put an end to the losing streak in the semi-finals of the Asia Cup at the National Hockey Stadium in Bukit Jalil today.
India last defeated the two-time Asia Cup champions in the final of the 1998 Bangkok Asian Games. They won on penalty strokes after a 0-0 draw at full-time. In their last meeting – the final of the Busan Asian Games last year – India lost 3-4.
