The day in ‘Bronze’ finally arrived on August 5, 2021, after a gold medal day on July 29, 1980.

There is no medal.
But on Thursday, the team that everyone knows Hockey believes to win, does win.
It doesn’t really matter that it is bronze and not gold.
This is a big step forward for Indian hockey.
After all this is not just a medal, it is an emotion that will revive love and the desire for the sport that was once the nation’s heartthrob.
In the Cricket World Cup-Winner Gautam Gambir: “Forget 1983, 2007 or 2011, the medal in this hockey is greater than the World Cup! #IndianhockeyMyPride.” That is what Hockey can do, and only hockey can do that.
