KUALA LUMPUR: Pakistan and Japan sent an early warning to Malaysia that they mean business in the Under-21 Sultan of Johor Cup by recording impressive wins at the Taman Daya Hockey Stadium in Johor on Saturday.
In the first match of the day, the Green Shirts who were gunning for their first SoJC title, routed China 8-3, and Japan thrashed Canada 8-1 in the second match later.
However, Pakistan had a slow start and they were trailing 3-1 against China in the first 25 minutes before they
turned on the heat in the last two quarters to record an impressive win.
