India went down 1-3 against Netherlands in their final Group B clash of the ongoing Hockey World League Semi-final here in London on Tuesday.

Thierry Brinkman (2'), Sander Baart (12') and Mirco Pruijser (24') scored for Netherlands as the Dutchman completely dominated the game.

Akashdeep Singh (28') was the lone goal-scorer for India. India previously played The Netherlands at the 2016 Rio Olympics where also they suffered a 1-2 defeat.

The defeat comes just a day after India hammered Pakistan 7-1 on Sunday. Before that the Men in Blue had defeated Scotland 4-1 and Canada 3-0.

With the defeat, India, who were leading the group table before the match, are now second to Netherlands.
