Malaysia emerged as champions of the inaugural Sultan of Johor Cup when they came twice from behind to defeat Australia 3-2 on golden goal at the Taman Daya Stadium in Johor Bahru.

It was a grand victory as Malaysia were one minute away from defeat but two penalty corner strikes by skipper Mohd Noor Faez Ibrahim gave the title to Malaysia.

Korea needed a golden goal to subdue India in the fight for the 3rd and 4th spot in the Sultan of Johor Cup at the Taman Daya Hockey Stadium. Though Korea were 2-0 up, India fought back gallantly to draw level on two occasions, only to lose out in extra time.

Pakistan finished fifth in the Sultan Johor Cup when they defeated New Zealand 2-0 at the Taman Daya Hockey Stadium in Johor Bahru. It was Pakistan's second win in the tournament having beaten Australia 3-2 the previous day.
