    Women's Hockey: All about India vs Ireland quarter-final

    What's the story

    Indian eves will meet Ireland in the quarters of the ongoing women's hockey World Cup 2018.

    The Indian women's hockey team will be looking to win this battle and book their spot in semi-final after a gap of 44 years.

    Ireland had beaten Indian by a solitary goal in the group game last week.

    Here is everything you need to know.

    Momentum

    India aim to carry the momentum

    Since their defeat against Ireland earlier, Indian eves have displayed glimpses of brilliance.

    They drew against England and the USA and beat Italy to reach the last eight.

    India will be aiming to build on the momentum and make the most out of it when they face a resolute Irish side.

    Coach Sjoerd Marijne has been the driving force behind this campaign.

    Goals

    Rani Rampal hopes team will score necessary goals

    Indian skipper Rani Rampal feels that the side has found the shape required to score goals.

    "Early in the tournament, we didn't do the one thing we needed to do — score goals. But we have found the net now and we can definitely push on with our journey," she said.

    India's defensive players have stepped in and the line-up promises another strong show.

    Ireland

    Ireland will provide a stern test

    Ireland will not be an easy side to get past and the Indian eves know that.

    The loss, earlier this week, will give India a better look, but expect Ireland to come hard.

    Despite being the lowest ranked side, the Irish topped the group.

    Irish goalkeeper Ayeisha McFerran has been in super form and Indian forwards will find it difficult to get past her.
