SA hockey suffer another blow in Durban
A Lucas Rossi hat-trick plus goals from Guido Barreiros and Joaquin Menini gave Argentina a 5-2 lead at half-time in the fourth Test at Queensmead in Durban yesterday and set up their 7-3 victory.
Argentina lead the series 4-0 with the fifth and final Test at 6.30 pm Tuesday on the Pietermaritzburg campus of the University of KwaZulu-Natal.
Argentina added goals from Matias Rey and Matias Paredes in the second half while SA scored at the end via the stick of Craig Haley.
South Africa had led 2-0 after 11 minutes through Matt Botha, from the first penalty corner of the match, and a fine field goal by Miguel da Graca.
