Congratulations to best player Povilas Sinkevičius (Lithuania), top scorer Maxmilien Kelner (Austria) and best goalkeeper Bohdan Yurkov (Ukraine)

A single Zara Kennedy goal settled the women’s EuroHockey U21 Championship II-B in Konya in Scotland’s favour, earning them promotion and place at the Junior World Cup for the first time since 2005.

They completed the competition with a perfect record just ahead of Ukraine following a titanic tussle in the Turkish heat.

Maria Drozda’s pair of goals helped Poland win third place with a 4-1 win over Türkiye. The Turks had initially taken the lead via Sude Nur Kurt in the 17th minute but Drozda equalised for 1-1 at half-time.

The Poles made their move in the third quarter with Hanna Wochna and Drozda both scoring and Julia Rymer crowned the victory with 11 minutes to go.

Germany’s women were the one side to formally advance to the final four of their respective EuroHockey U21 Championship Pool B groups while no men’s side has yet to stamp their ticket to the next phase.

It sets up a huge Wednesday with a full set of eight games on the agenda in which six semi-final spots are still up for grabs.

Today, the Germans defeated England 2-0 to take up their place in the next phase and take up a place in the Junior World Cup into the bargain.

Who will join them in the final four is very much up for grabs on Wednesday following the Irish women’s 2-0 win over Austria.

On the men’s side, it was draws all round as England tied 1-1 with Ireland and the Dutch succumbed to a huge comeback against hosts Spain to make it 3-3.

It means on Wednesday, the full deck of fixtures will be packed with intrigue. For the men, Germany take on Türkiye (09.45 CET) and Belgium face France (10.00 CET – live on EHTV) in Pool A with a wide range of permutations to determine the top two.

Pool B concludes in the evening with the Netherlands against Ireland at 17.45 CET and England against Spain at 18.00 CET (live on EHTV).

The women’s fixtures will see Pool B decided early in the day with the key game between Ireland and England at 12.15 CET (live on EHTV). Germany v Austria is on Pitch 2 at 12.00 CET.

Pool B concludes in the evening with the Netherlands against Ireland at 17.45 CET and England against Spain at 18.00 CET (live on EHTV). The Dutch are in the best position on four points with Ireland and Spain on two and England on one, needing a victory.
