Match Report

After getting a place in the final, the Argentine team faced Canada in the last match of the Indoor Cup in the men's pool.

The match began with Argentina attacking in an orderly manner, smoothly and trying to maintain possession of the ball. Meanwhile, his Canadian pair was focused on defense and on managing to retain the rival attack. They both kept their goals at zero.

In the second half, the Argentines began to play a little firmer and refined their aim to open the scoring with a great goal from Agustín Ceballos (# 7). Despite receiving a yellow card at the beginning (Alfredo Sosa # 7)), they held the lead until the end, when Canada got their first green card (Lyle Fernandes # 7).

Three minutes after the start of the third quarter the North American team would draw, which through Fernandes (# 7) would draw the score 1 to 1. The game was even and Canada seemed to have the advantage. Argentina would miss another player with the second yellow (Juan Eleicegui # 5).

As soon as the last half started, the player Gurjot Singh (# 28 Canada) would be suspended for one minute. The Argentine team could not sustain the defense and the balanced attack of their rival caused them to retreat too much. Thus the Canadians turned the score with a goal from Gurtej Dhaliwal (# 17), who took advantage of an excellent counter-attack thus sentencing the 2 to 1 in his favor.

With this victory, Canada forces a tiebreaker with the United States to see which team will join Argentina in the final.
