A fighting Indian Junior Women's hockey team went down to the Netherlands who established supremacy with a 3-0 win in the Semi-final of the FIH Hockey Women's Junior World Cup on Sunday. It was goals by Tessa Beetsma (12'), Luna Fokke (53') and Jip Dicke (54') that ensured the Netherlands booked their final berth.
