By what scoreline did the Indian Junior Men's Hockey Team win the Asia Cup final?
- A.2-1
- B.3-0
- C.4-1
- D.5-2
Correct answer
Explanation
The correct answer is 4-1. The Prime Minister's message says that the Junior Men's Hockey Team won the Asia Cup with an emphatic win by four goals to one in the final. He called the title a remarkable achievement and said that the feat reflects the immense talent of the young players in the squad. He also extended his best wishes to the entire team. Option A, 2-1, is wrong because the margin in the final was three goals and not one goal. Option B, 3-0, is wrong because the losing side did score once in the final, so the match was not a clean sheet for India. Option D, 5-2, is wrong because neither team reached five goals in the final. Candidates should note the exact scoreline, because sports questions in examinations very often ask for the margin of a final rather than the name of the winner.
