India loses to South Africa 0-2 (6/25/2011)
--Press Release
India lost 0-2 to South Africa in a 5-8 position match in the FIH Women's Champions Challenge 1 Tournament at Dublin.

South Africa scored once in each half through world record goal scorer Pietie Coetzee from a penalty corner in the 23rd minute and Lesle-Ann George in the 67th minute.

The match was played in wet and drizzly conditions with India getting few chances in the soggy atmosphere.

Indian strikers, skipper Saba Anjum, Rani, Jasjeet Kaur Handa and Chanchan Devi failed to find their rhythm and cohesion in the attacks.

South Africa were thwarted by Indian goalkeeper Yogita Bali who saved a penalty stroke taken by Coetzee in the 28th minute.

India will now play Azerbaijan tomorrow for the 7-8 position.
