Golden Goal Defeats Great Britain

17.07.10
Great Britain lost the final of the International Men’s Four Nations Tournament at Highfields Sports Club in Nottingham on Saturday night as they surrendered a two goal lead to Germany, who came from behind to win the tie with a Golden Goal from Jan-Marco Montag.

The hosts had stormed into a two goal lead with goals from Barry Middleton and James Tindall but Germany responded with second half strikes from Linus Butt and Martin Zwicker to send the match to golden goal extra time.  Chances to win the match fell to Adam Dixon and Ashley Jackson but neither could convert and it was Germany who sealed the win in the final minute of the half as Jan-Marco Montag snuck a low penalty corner into the bottom corner with the aid of a deflection from Glenn Kirkham on the line.
