 Jeroen Delmee of the Netherlands battles with GB's Craig Parnham |
Great Britain's Olympic qualification hopes suffered a further setback when they lost 3-0 to the Netherlands in the qualifying event in Madrid. Their destiny is still in their own hands but they lost their opening game to Poland and only goal difference keeps them off the bottom of Group A.
Taeke Taekema opened the scoring on four minutes, and Russell Garcia wasted a chance to level when he shot over.
Goals by Teun de Nooijer and Sander van der Weide completed Britain's misery.
Britain must finish in the top seven of the 12-nation event and still have to play Spain, Japan and South Africa.
Pakistan, India, Malaysia, New Zealand, Belgium and Canada make up the second group.
