    The Black Sticks men are Olympics bound

    The Black Sticks men are Olympics bound


    New Zealand's rallied from 2-1 down in the final quarter to beat Pakistan 3-2 in their last-chance Olympic qualifier in Oman to clinch third place and with it, a spot in Paris.

    Scott Boyde scored the winner, his second goal of the match.

    Paris will be the kiwi men's sixth straight Olympics, last failing to qualify for Sydney 2000.

    The women's side last week failed to qualify.
