Defending champions India completed a fighting 1-0 victory over hosts China to claim their fifth Asian Champions Trophy hockey title. It was not easy for Harmanpreet Singh and Co as the Paris Olympics bronze medallist failed to break the Chinese defence in the first three quarters. Eventually, defender Jugraj Singh broke the deadlock as he scored a rare field goal in the 51st minute to hand his team the title. Earlier in the day, Pakistan defeated Korea 5-2 to claim the third spot in the six-team competition.
