They met in the semi-finals in London, and the Australian Kookaburras and Germany will clash again in Tokyo for the Olympic men’s hockey semi-final tonight.
After a thrilling penalty shootout win against the Netherlands in the quarter-final, courtesy of some heroic goalkeeping by Andrew Charter, the Kookaburras face their toughest challenge yet.
Germany are standing in their way and have won gold then bronze in their last two Olympic outings in the men’s field hockey.
Australian co-captain Aran Zalewski will appear for the 200th time but that will be far from his mind as the Kookaburras look to progress through to the gold medal match.
What time are the Kookaburras playing tonight?
Kookaburras vs Germany will start at 8pm AEST, which is 7pm local time in Tokyo. If you’re tuning in from the Western part of Australia, the Aussies will get underway at 6pm AWST.
How to watch the Australian Kookaburras vs Germany?
