Australia beat Spain 4-1 for its ninth men's field hockey Champions Trophy
title in the Dutch city of Rotterdam yesterday.
Australia assistant coach
Colin Batch hailed the victory. "It was an excellent tournament for us and great
preparation for the Olympics and to find our Olympic squad," he said.
Spain
coach Maurits Hendriks was critical of his team.
"We started well and took
the game to Australia in certain moments and created chances in front of goal
but we did not capitalize on those chances," he said.
