Photo ReutersNew Zealand, the world No 8, looked in control when they led 2-0 with fine goals from Hugo Inglis and Shea McAleese. However, Germany scored from two penalty corners through Moritz Furste in the second half, the second with 40 seconds left, then broke away with the clock counting down. The last time New Zealand had beaten Germany was in India in 2009. "It's a bitter pill it will hurt for a long time," New Zealand coach Colin Batch said.
