Yes, I know about it but well, Cyprus can't be difficult opponent. This match was at Open Series tournament, it's somehow related with Olympic qualifications or not?

It is. Winners of Open Series go to Hockey Series Finals. 6 teams (out of 24) teams from the Hockey Series Finals qualify for the Olympic playoffs.

If I were you, I would cheer for the best team. It would give France the best chance of qualifying for Tokyo.

Can Pakistan beat Japan and Malaysia?

Big upset, might be for the best in terms of maximizing Asian representation. India will likely be one of the top 3 seeds in the world qualifiers.

More than the result i'm surprised with the fact that it was a very even game in number of shots, penalty corners, etc. Normally these upsets in hockey happen when one team misses a ton of opportunities and also the straight-to-penalties format has favored upsets last few years, but it wasn't the case today.

Malaysia is usually very bad against teams ranked above them except with India, for some reason.

Pakistan is 1-0 against Japan, how sad, go to Pakistan
