Pakistan vs Australia Olympic 2012 Hockey Match Commission Report


Lets analyze the performance of the Pakistan hockey team in the game against Australia. What led to such an abysmal failure should be learned and corrected.



Several factors I'm unsure about is the diet of the players relative to their physical performance and energy level to withstand the duration of a high intensity hockey match.

1) Diet:

From what I've heard Pakistani players were foolishly fasting. If this is true, coach, management, and players should be scolded and reprimanded. Players are not on a strict athletic diet regiment which can optimize performance, due to poor diet and fasting Pakistani team faced energy shortage much like the country.


2) Astro-Turf

To be discussed. Feel free to address point 2 and add your thoughts about this element of game play.

3) Skill

Pakistani players were not skillful enough to attain possession and attack during the game. This is a failure of coaching and practice, players were simply outclassed and failed to response to changing conditions through out the game.

4) Physique of players

Players physique is crucial, players should be lean and muscular, not bulky. Some of the players do not meet the optimal physical physique to play Olympic hockey.

5) Funds

Pakistan Hockey team needs more funding, better training, better training facility, and more.

6) New methods and techniques

New methods and techniques should be adopted to meet today's standard of Hockey, this can be facilitated by better training and facilities.


The team performed poorly and shamefully, if true the players fasted knowing they are in a competitive sport in the Olympics, such foolishness shouldn't be tolerated.
 
7-0 was one of the worst losses ...
Pakistan team has put us to shame.....

Search for a new young team should start, raw material is needed and years of training should start soon to prepare for the next Olympics, in Rio.

This was an absolute miserable failure on the part of the hockey team, not a single moment of competitiveness was mounted by the Pakistan hockey team.

As I said before, survival of the fittest, and this team did not survive hence should perish.
 
Bad Day for Pakistan Hockey Team:tdown: Is Pakistan Representing in other sports too???
 
Pakistan is out of the Olympics, the Hockey Team were the last Pakistani entity in the London Olympics.

cmon yaar they played better then we expected it was really better play too bad the other team was like a storm
 
What do you expect when playing against Australia?
 
they shouldnt have attendd olympics in Ramazan...thats all.
Everybody knows muslims keep fast during ramazan and yet the olympics were placed in ramazan..
Was not for muslims anyway.
 
Why Kabaddi, Squash, cricket in not included in this Olympics.:hitwall::hitwall:
We are more than 8 times world champion in squash and good performance in kabaddi too.
We were also world champion in T20 cricket.
We can't rely only on hockey. They have converted hockey for western style.
No Half side, Bad rules of obstruction and artificial blue turf....

I reckon this could be a conspiracy against islam and pakistan...how could they even think of organizing Olympics in the month of ramzan....jerks, right!!

Hahaha, No olympics because it's ramzan....Lolzz....Oh god u are a legend sir.Respect.

and one question sir, why Olympics is not for muslims?? please elaborate..this poor soul needs to know...

Kind Regards.

Even Kazakhstan have 6 Gold medals with 8th Position in medals table.
Olympics have nothing to do with Ramadan.
 
What do you expect when playing against Australia?
Not to worry my Aussie friend....Australia has been beaten before..Pakistan has a fantastic team...They will bounce back Hockey belongs to the sub-Continent....They played well this Olympics except of course the last game, against the Aussies...I always support the PAK hockey team when Ind is not the other team.

Listen! No one even cares what you are talking here. All the appointments in PHF are political. Those who are there just dont understand modern hockey is. Perhaps we are the only country in the world which has a ministry of Sports at federal level and which does nothing to promote sports.

It just shows our total incompetence and lack of seriousness that we have not won a single medal, in i dont know, how many Olympics. Our only hope is hockey and we keep getting disappointed. We should be more diverse in the medal race. But then how can we get to that point when Pakistan Olympics Committee ,Pakistan Sports Board and Ministry of Sports have all taken sleeping pills? The athletes who represented Pakistan got their own sponsorship. Without the help of the idiotic ministry, they trained hard and got to where they could.

Back to the topic - I m not too sure if Pakistanis are enthusiastic about hockey anymore. On top of that, we have PHF staffed with political appointees. So we are not getting anywhere. The required talent is not coming through as there is not much money in hockey.
 
Australians are one of the healthiest Nations on earth.. must have been pretty hard to match their physical fitness alone.
