PETALING JAYA: Malaysia put up a good performance against world No. 10 Spain before losing 3-1 in a Group B match of the women's World Hockey League Semi-Finals in Brussels, Belgium on Thursday. But Spain, the 1992 Barcelona Olympics gold medallists, came back strongly to net three goals in the spell of eight minutes. Lola Riera, meanwhile, was the heroine for Spain scoring two goals — in the 31st minute off a penalty stroke and from a penalty corner in the 36th minute. On Wednesday, Malaysia lost their opening match 3-0 to world No.
