Wales beaten by Korea despite Furlong landmark
Wales' men suffered a 3-2 defeat to Korea in their second game at the FIH Nations League in Malaysia, despite opening the scoring with a landmark Gareth Furlong goal. Winning his 150th Wales cap, the 33-year-old Great Britain defender reached a century of goals for his country from a penalty corner shortly before the end of the second quarter. Advertisement However, Korea hit back with goals from Jihun Yang and Jungjun Lee late in quarter three, then extended their lead through Dohyun Lim with four minutes to go. Rhys Bradshaw cut the deficit for Wales with 88 seconds to play, but Danny Newcombe's side were unable to force a second draw of their campaign following Sunday's 4-4 draw with South Africa. Making their debut at the second-tier Nations League, Wales complete their pool fixtures against group leaders France on Wednesday. Wales' women are also in action this week. They take on Italy in the FIH Hockey Women's Nations Cup 2 in Poland later on Monday, before games against Czech Republic on Tuesday and France on Thursday.
