OLYMPIC champion Germany thrashed England 4-1 in the semifinals of the World Cup in New Delhi yesterday to stay on course for a third successive title.
Germany, which lost to England in the final of the European championship last year, scored through Marco Montag, Oliver Korn, Martin Haner and Linus Butt.
Richard Smith replied for England.
Tournament favorite Australia was locking horns with the Netherlands in the other semifinal later yesterday.
Earlier, four-time champion Pakistan slumped to its lowest-ever finish at the World Cup, ending up last after losing 2-3 to Canada in the playoff for the final two positions in the 12-nation tournament.
Scott Tupper's golden goal in the 13th minute of extra time clinched victory for Canada after the teams were tied 2-2 in 70 minutes of regulation play.
Pakistan opened the scoring in the fourth minute through Rehan Butt's field goal and Connor Grimes equalized for Canada in the 12th to make it 1-1 at halftime. Akhtar Ali again put Pakistan ahead with a flash strike in the 46th, only to see Mark Pearson restore parity in the 58th.
