Ipoh: The young Indian team went down fighting against the Olympic champions Argentina in its rain-hit opening match of the 27th Sultan Azlan Shah Cup on Saturday.

India started well, attacking their opponents and creating shots at goal. However, Argentina took lead in the 13th minute through a penalty corner. The lead was doubled eleven minutes later.
India pulled both back, courtesy Odia lad Amit Rohidas, who was the only takeaway for India in the match. Within a minute of the equalizer, Argentina took the lead once again off penalty corner.
