FIH Men’s Hockey World Cup 2026: After losing to the Netherlands 3-1, the Indian Men’s Hockey Team are on the brink of being eliminated from the FIH Hockey World Cup 2026. Nevertheless, they still have a chance of finishing their campaign on a high or keep the glimmer of hope alive when they face Argentina on August 24, Monday at the Wagener Stadium, Amestelveen, Netherlands. India head into the match following a defeat to the Netherlands and England, who beat them in the first round.
The equation facing India to qualify for the semi-final remains a daunting one. Harmanpreet Singh and co. must beat Argentina by at least two clear goals and a draw or a difference of a single goal will eliminate them out of the semi-final contention. Additionally, the 1975 champions also need a favour from the Netherlands to beat England in the later match on Monday night. Should India win by two goals against Argentina, they require England to lose to the hosts by three or more goals. Moreover, if India wins by three goals, England must beat the Dutch by at least two goals. The third scenario is India directly progressing through but they will need to beat Argentina by four goals.
Argentina, on the other hand, have put themselves in a strong position after defeating England 3-1. Hence, they will be no pushovers and defeating the South American nation by 4-1 will be far from a comfortable task.
