HOCKEY
England came from behind to beat Holland 4-3 at the Champions Trophy in Monchengladbach. Having twice been ahead in the first half through Richard Alexander and Simon Mantell, England found themselves behind at the break after goals from Rogier Hofman, Jeroen Hertzberger and Mink van der Weerden. With less than 15 minutes remaining, Jonty Clarke's pass across the face of goal was turned in by a Dutch defender before Nick Catlin linked well with James Tindal to set up Alexander on the back post to snatch victory.
