Alex Danson 'devastated' at England's Hockey World Cup defeat
ENGLAND women crashed to their fourth reversal in a 2-1 defeat against defending champions Argentina at the Rabobank World Cup in The Hague.
Carla Rebecchi’s winner came after the final hooter from a repeat of their only penalty corner, leaving England pointless at the foot of their group and in danger of their worst World Cup finish.
Alex Danson scored from a close-range strike in the seventh minute before Delfina Merino equalised after 27 minutes.
Danson said: “We’re devastated at the result but proud of how we played.”
Coach Jason Lee said: “This was the worst possible experience but this side has a future.”
England’s men meet Belgium today, needing victory to claim their semi-final place.
