Soviets top seeds in Auckland
AUCKLAND. Oct 12: The Soviet Union men's hockey team are top seed* in the first qualifying tourna-
ment for next year's Barcelona Olympics, but each of the 12 teams can stake a claim to one of the four spots available, reports Reuter.
The 16-day tournament has both a men's and women's section and marks the first time that the sport's governing body has not directly appointed teams to the Olympics.
For the men, Britain, Spain. Germany. Australia, the Netherlands, Egypt, Pakistan and Argentina have already qualified for the Olympics.
The women's section which started today, already has
Spain, Australia and the Netherlands and will be Joined by five teams from the Auckland tournament.
The Soviet Union men's team, who have ranked among the top six teams for several years, were sixth at last year's World Cup in Lahore and fourth at this year's European Cup in Paris.
"They are a strong defensive side, they've got really good basics and a very low error rate, nothing flash at all... but they get a result,” said hockey writer Richard Calkin.
The Soviet Union came last in last week's European Champion's Trophy but all their six opponents had already qualified.
They were only two goals behind the best teams in the world." said New Zealand coach Kevin Towns.
New Zealand, gold medallists at the 1976 Olympics, meet the Soviet Union first and arc ranked fourth In their six-team pool behind Canada and Ireland.
But the Kiwis are confident their home side advantage can win them a ticket to the Olympics.
Two teams from each men's pool will go to Barcelona. Canada, dejected after missing out on automatic entry upon losing 0-3 to Argentina at the Pan-American Games in Cuba, ill be looking to set the record straight.
A relatively young Ireland side, which finished seventh in the European Cup this year, boast a strong defehcc but they have had little International experience since.
Lowly-rated Japan and Italy round out the pool.
In the second pool India, who have fallen on lean times in the past decade, arc expected to make the finals with Malaysia, leaving France, Belgium, the United States and Switzerland to slug it out for the second spot.
France are on of the improving European sides while the Airtcrieans have struggled to come to grips with interha-tional hockey.
Britain's recent form gives them an edge over favourites South Korea in the women's section, but both teams are likely lo end up in Barcelona.
Britain arc top seeds in a pool which includes China, Argentina, the United States, Ireland and Italy. The Koreans lop the second pool, which include? Germany, New Zealand, Canada, France and
Germany arc regarded as a tough proposition following their second place at last month's Champions Trophy behind current Olympic champions Australia.
Canada are rebuilding after the retirement of several key players who helped make them a leading team for years.
They finished 10th at last year's World Cup.
