Tokyo Olympics, India Schedule for August 4: Boxer Lovlina, women’s hockey team eye final spot

Boxer Lovlina Borgohain aims for gold medal bout as women’s hockey team eye final spot

Bengaluru, August 3: After a disappointing day at the Tokyo Olympics, India will hope for a better outing on Wednesday (August 4), when boxer Lovlina Borgohain hopes to reach gold medal bout and the women's hockey team look to create further history.

While Lovlina, who is assured of a medal - bronze, will look to change that to either silver or gold, the Indian hockey eves, who reached their first ever semifinal in Olympic history, will look to go one step further as they aim for the final berth.

Pugilist Lovlina, who defeated Chinese Taipei's Chen Nien-chin in the quarterfinal, will be seen in women's welterweight semifinal action against world number 2 Busenaz Surmeneli of Turkey. As it stands, she is guaranteed of a bronze medal, but a victory will keep her gold medal hopes alive.
