The Hockeyroos have made a huge Olympic statement, destroying bitter rival Great Britain. It was another impressive performance from the Aussies, winning the match 4-0 to make a perfect start to their Olympics campaign. The Hockeyroos came to life in the second quarter where they scored twice in less than two minutes. They then added two more goals in the last term, proving too powerful for their outclassed opponents.
The opportunity came from a penalty corner — a manic goal-mouth scramble featuring three goal-line clearances followed before the ball fell to Greiner, who instinctively tapped in. Just 90 seconds later, Arnott doubled the lead after a long aerial ball from Penny Squibb into the attacking circle was parried by British goalkeeper Miriam Pritchard. Olympic debutant Arnott seized the rebound and blasted an accurate sweetly struck shot.
