LAHORE, (APP - UrduPoint / Pakistan Point News - 5th Apr, 2018 ) :Pakistan hockey team hardly managed a 1-1 draw against little known Wales in the hockey event of the Commonwealth Games on Thursday in Australia as Pakistan hockey continued its downward journey at international level.
In another dooms day story, the former world champions, now a pale shadow of their glittering past, were given a big shock when Wales notched up the lead in the third quarter of the play before a goalless half time, said the information made available here.
Pakistan is struggling at international level which is evident from their drawn games against country like Oman and defeats at the hand of Japan. Wales receivied a goal from Rupert Shipperly to give a big scare to the greens shirts.
Mubashar Ali converted a penalty corner into a goal to lift Pakistan from the jaws of defeat and poured water on the dreams of the opponents to create hockey history of defeating a former giant of the game. Pakistan will take on arch rivals India April 7 in their second match. APP/msa/rsd
