Field Hockey at the Summer Olympic Games 2016

Two curiosities about the final match:

-Both team have "lions" as nickname

-One of our players got injured today and is out of the final, he will be replaced by Luca Masso... who was playing for Belgium up until last year and decided to switch to Argentina (he is belgian but son of argentines).

Congrats to Argentina and Belgium

OMG Germany was losing 0-2 and won with 3 goals in the last 5 minutes, two of them in the last minute  ( it's the third match in this games they score in the last minute!)

 

Luckiest team in the world by a mile.

So, who predicted the Argentinian men to make the finals and the Argentinian women to crash and burn in the quarters?

Really unlucky for Germany. Never seen that a keeper is allowed to grab and hold the shooter in a penalty
