Match 3 - POL 2 GBR 1

An upset win for the lower ranked Polish team over their more fancied opponents.

A close first half saw the game locked at 0-0.  Poland then broke the deadlock 10 minutes into the second half  and an upset looked possible.

A period of Great Britain dominance followed before they finally equalized with eight minutes to go in the match with their ninth corner (seventh for the second half).

Poland then stunned the determined Great Britain team with a penalty corner goal with two minutes to go.

Tomorrow, Great Britain face a tough match against Netherlands whilst Poland meet Japan.

POL Goals: Choczaj (FG 45m), Dutkiewicz (PC 67m)
GBR Goals: Hall (FG 62m)
