Belgium has won their first Olympic hockey title with a dramatic shootout win over Australia in the men's final.

The match had finished 1-1, with Florent van Aubel giving Belgium the lead early in the third quarter before Tom Wickham levelled it in the fourth quarter.

But in the shootout, Belgium goalkeeper Vincent Vanasch made three key saves for the world champions.

Earlier, India took bronze after a thrilling 5-4 victory over Germany.

It was their first Olympic medal in the sport since the 1980 Moscow Games.
