As it happened: India vs Belgium, Champions Trophy Hockey
India came down from two-goal deficit to upset Belgium 4-2 in the quarter-finals of the Men's Champions Trophy 2014 on Thursday.

The winner of the fourth quarter-final between India and Belgium will meet Pakistan in the semi-finals, which means a possible Indo-Pak humdinger for a place in the final.

PREVIEW: A victory over the Netherlands after 28 years in the champions Trophy is extra special. And though a quarter-final win over Belgium should not count as unexpected, it will be an achievement for India on current form.

The absence of Terry Walsh showing in the two defeats against Germany and Argentina, India reminded to not consider them as pushovers with a 3-2 win over the Dutch in their final pool match of the FIH Men's Champions Trophy.

But the Red Army of the Belgians, with a win and two draws, is undefeated in the tournament so far. And the most improved team in the world today will prove a tough nut to crack for India in the quarter-final.
