PARIS – The Netherlands beat Germany in a shoot-out to win the men's Olympic hockey gold Thursday, breaking a 24-year drought in what they hope will be the first of a Dutch double.
Thijs van Dam and Germany's Justus Weigand both netted, leaving Duco Telgenkamp with the chance to win the match. The Dutch were desperate to bounce back from a poor campaign at the Tokyo Games, where they finished sixth.The first half was played at a furious pace as both sides looked for a way through the tightly organised defences.
The Dutch, cheered on by another vast army of orange-clad supporters, began to assert themselves as the game moved into the third quarter.Koen Bijen flicked the ball across goal for Brinkman to stab home on the volley from close range.
