India vs Germany Head to Head Record in Hockey Ahead of Paris Olympics 2024 Semi-Final

With eyes on a second successive medal and an upgrade on the colour, Indian Men's Hockey Team take on Germany in the semi-finals of the ongoing Paris Olympics 2024 on Tuesday (August 6). This will be a rematch from the Tokyo 2020 bronze medal match, which India won 5-4.

India, the most successful side in Olympics men's hockey, showed excellent resilience to overcome Great Britain in the quarter-final with 10 men as PR Sreejesh stood tall in the penalty shootout after a 1-1 draw in regulation time. India sealed their semi-final berth after a 4-2 win in the shootout.

Earlier, the Indian men's hockey team registered a stunning 3-2 win over Australia in their last Pool B match. This was the men's team's first victory against Australia in the Olympics since 1972 Munich games.

India, who lost to the defending champions Belgium in the pool stage, also earned a close draw with Argentina and registered victories over New Zealand and Ireland to finish second in Pool B.

Germany, on the other hand, booked their semi-final spot after a 3-2 win over Argentina in the other quarter-final. The three-time gold medallists had earlier topped Pool A after wins over France, Netherlands, South Africa and Great Britain, but had lost to Spain.

As mentioned earlier, this will not be India's first meeting against Germany, having met them in Olympics several times in previous editions and also in various other competitions such as World League Final, Champions Trophy and Olympic Qualifiers. Here is a look at the head to head record:
