Both English teams in Round 1.1 of the Euro Hockey League
are through to the KO16 at Easter after finishing second in their pools.
Beeston and Surbiton’s luck of Friday was not repeated
today, as both sides suffered defeats, Beeston losing 2-3 to Harvestehuder and
Subiton losing 3-0 to Real Club de Polo de Barcelona. Beeston will be bitterly
disappointed with result of today’s match, which saw them 2-0 ahead after only
nine minutes after Christopher Proctor and Tim Whiteman both found the net. But
their German opponents pulled three back before half-time and that was the
final score.
The UK’s Celtic contingent is out of the competition after
both sides finished third in their Pools. Cardiff & Met, the Welsh
representatives, were in the same pool as Beeston and, after losing to them 3-1
on Friday, they suffered a 9-1 defeat at the hands of Harvestehuder
yesterday. Scotland’s Kelburne, lost 4-1
to the Poles from Grunwald Poznan this afternoon, having lost 6-0 to Dutch side
Oranje Zwart on Friday.
