Indo-Pack hockey

The drama enacted by Pakistani umpire at the closing stages was detestable and against fairplay and impartiality. One umpire allowed the goal, but the Pakistani umpire promptly disallowed it claiming that it was scored by reverse flick.

In the very next moment, an Indian player was fouled and injured and the same Pakistani umpire had the audacity to showing him a red card. The open partiality did not last long and the well deserved Indian team scored a golden goal, sealing the match.
How come an international sports body like FIH allow politics in an international event like this!
