GB hockey men routed by Dutch
9:28pm Thursday 9th August 2012 in Sport By Andy Naylor
GB were humiliated in their men's hockey semi-final against the Netherlands tonight.
Jason Lee's side, featuring four East Grinstead players, crashed to a 9-2 defeat.
Billy Bakker and Roderick Weusthof both helped themselves to hat-tricks for the Dutch.
East Grinstead star Ashley Jackson scored one of GB's goals from a penalty corner. It was 2-1 at that stage early in the first half but the Dutch were 4-1 up by half-time and ran away with the match after the break.
They now face Germany to decide the gold and silver medals on Saturday night (8pm). GB play Australia for the bronze on Saturday afternoon (3.30pm).
