Indian Hockey Team Paris Olympics 2024: The Indian hockey team won the bronze medal by defeating Spain in the Paris Olympics 2024. Earlier, the hockey team had also won the bronze medal in the Tokyo Olympics 2020. The Indian team performed strongly in the current Olympics. They defeated a strong team like Australia in the Olympics after 52 years. This was the last international tournament of the team’s goalkeeper PR Sreejesh and the hockey team gave the best farewell to its best player. Every Indian is overjoyed with the success of the hockey team in two consecutive Olympics. Now the hockey team has returned to India and has been given a warm welcome.

It is visible in the video that hockey team captain Harmanpreet Singh and the rest of the players are coming out of Delhi airport and fans are garlanding them. The sound of drums is coming in the background. Everyone looks very happy.

 

 

Indian players posed for photos with their bronze medals outside the airport. Many players were also seen dancing to the sound of dhol. The players also showed their dance moves to celebrate the success.

 

 

 

 

Hockey India secretary Bholanath Singh said that he (PR Sreejesh) deserved this (to be the flag bearer in the closing ceremony of the Olympics). If the Government of India and the Indian Olympic Committee have given him this opportunity, then Hockey India thanks them. Winning consecutive medals was a great achievement, but our goal was to play the final. The referee’s mistake of keeping Amit Rohidas out cost us dearly and that’s why we are here with bronze. Otherwise, the color of the medal would have been different.
