BRITAIN go into Saturday’s opening home match in the FIH Pro League against the United States seeking to rebound after losing to Germany 2-0 in Moenchengladbach on Wednesday night.

Captain Hollie Pearne-Webb said the Olympic champions were “extremely disappointed” with the result after a double from Hannah Gablac gave Germany the win that was delayed by 45 minutes due to heavy rain, leaving Britain with one win from six games in the inaugural season of the competition.

Britain are down in seventh place but face the bottom-placed US — the league’s only winless team — on Saturday. Lily Owsley scored twice and Emily Defroand added another in Britain’s only previous victory of the campaign; a 3-1 success over Saturday’s opponents in Pennsylvania last month.
