Pakistan is just one step away from a shot at silverware and a coveted spot in the FIH Pro League as it gears up to face France in the first semi-final of the FIH Hockey Nations Cup 2025 in Kuala Lumpur today.
The match is scheduled to begin at 3:30 PM (PST) and promises to be a high-stakes clash, with both teams aiming to seal a place in the final of this crucial qualification event.
Pakistan had the rub of the green on their side to reach the semifinals as the second-best team in Pool B, having edged Malaysia on goal difference. With one win, one loss, and one draw on their record, everything can happen today. Despite the difficulties the team has faced thus far, players will be confident of putting their best foot forward.
France, meanwhile, come into the knockouts unbeaten, having topped Pool A ahead of South Korea, who will take on New Zealand in the second semi-final later today at 6:00 PM (Pakistan time).
