Paris 2024 Olympics Day 9 Live: Men's Hockey Team Qualifies For The Semis; Lakshya Sen Lost In Quarters, To Play Bronze Medal Match

India's unimpressive show in the Paris Games athletics continued with national record holders Parul Chaudhary and Jeswin Aldrin failing to qualify for the women's 3000m steeplechase and men's long jump respectively, here on Sunday. Parul finished eighth in her heat race and 21st overall to end her campaign while Aldrin fouled his first two attempts before coming up with 7.61m in the third. He ended 13th in Group B qualification out of 16 competitors and overall 26th.

Lakshya Sen chocked in the second set as well and once again conceded a lead early on in the second set. He suffered the 2-0 loss in the semi-final clash of the badminton event at the Olympics. He lost by 14-21 in the second set.

Star shuttler Lakshya Sen, who became the first Indian male shuttler to reach semifinal lost the first by 20-22 after conceding his lead from 17-11. Lakshya needs to win remaining both sets now to qualify for the final.

Tokyo Olympics Bronze medalist Lovalina Borgohain faltered in the quarterfinal as she missed out on the medal after not qualifying for the semifinal of the match ongoing Paris Olympics 2024. She lost 1-4 against Li Qian of China.

Indian men's team have qualified for the semi-finals after securing a 4-2 win in the penalty shootout against Great Britain in the quarterfinal match of the hockey event at the ongoing Paris Olympics 2024. India's most experienced player PR Sreejesh saved a couple of goals in the shootout to help India secure a place in the semi-final. Harmanpreet Singh, Sukhjeet Singh, Lalit Kumar Upadhyay and Raj Kumar Pal scored goals for the Men in Blue in the shootout.

The winner of the quarterfinal match will be decided after the match resulted in a draw in regulations time.

India showed a gritty defence after Great Britain kept the possession for more than 10 minutes in the third half, putting the Men in Blue under pressure. India is living dangerously in the D. However, they managed to sneak through in the third quarter.

India lost their lead within five minutes after Great Britain's Morton Lee scored the second goal of the match and the first for his side in the quarterfinals. Indian players need to recover and will have to come up with a different strategy in the third quarter as they have lost their best defence player Amit Rohitdas and will be one player short for the entire match.

Indian men's hockey team captain Harmanpreet Singh scored a goal on the third penalty corner for India. India now leads the game 1-0 but will have to play with one player short for the entire match as the umpire gave a red card to India's first rusher Amit Rohidas for hitting a hockey stick to the opposition player's head. However, it didn't seem to be deliberate, but umpires had their say.

Indian men's hockey team failed to convert the two penalty corners in the first quarter. However, no goal has been scored in the match by either of the teams.

India's star shuttler Lakshya Sen will be vying for the place in the final of the men's single badminton event. He will face world number 2 Victor Axelsen in the semi-final and if emerges triumphant in the clash, he will secure at least a silver medal for India.
