BHUBANESWAR: Olympic champions Germany qualified for final of the Champions Trophy hockey tournament on Saturday as it beat five-time defending champions Australia 3-2.
Germany scored two first-quarter goals through Timur Oruz and Mats Grambusch.
Florian Fuchs made it 3-0 off a penalty corner for the German team.
The Kookaburras’ goals came through Chris Ciriello and Nicholas Budgeon off penalty corners.
Australia had been forced to try out new combinations due to the absence of four first-choice players, including star forward Jamie Dwyer.
Germany will play the final against either India or Pakistan as second semi final is just started.
