India win Azlan Shah Cup hockey title

India win Azlan Shah Cup hockey title by defeating Malaysia 3 - 1 in the finals. This is India's 4th Azlan Shah hockey cup victory.

This is India's fourth cup victory after 13 years. India won Sultan Azlan Shah Cup title last time at 1995.

For India the three goals were scored by Shivender Singh, Prabhjot Singh and Arjun Halappa.

India beat Pakistan on saturday by 2 -1 to reach final of Azlan Shah Cup hockey.

This hockey victory may give interest for young generation who is much more interested in Cricket and Football. More people of India gives privilage to cricket and watch cricket. But the fact is that Indian national game is hockey, not cricket.

Even Live telecast goes on tv only for cricket. But there are good number of people who enjoys hockey.

Anyhow India win Azlan Shah Cup hockey title again at 2009.

Thank you.
