Indian hockey team might have defeated France in the first practice match but chief coach Paul van Ass feels Saturday's clash in the Hockey World League Semi-Final will be a real test for the side and they need to not only get the penalty corners but also convert them.

"The boys look in good form as they have showcased great play during the practice matches. But tomorrow will be the real test that they have to pass," van Ass said ahead of their opening match.

"Our practice match against Great Britain helped the team to work on the initial pressure that we had planned. I am hoping they continue this tomorrow.

"With France they have to be careful as they are a strong team and will not give in easily. The key tomorrow will be to get the crucial penalty corners in our name and convert them."

What's your reaction?
