The New Zealand men's hockey team has suffered its second loss at the Azlan Shah Cup in Malaysia, beaten 3-1 by Great Britain.

The result moves Great Britain to the top of the standings, while New Zealand are second from bottom with one point, just ahead of the hosts.

The New Zealanders beat Great Britain for the bronze medal at the Delhi Commonwealth Games last year, but it was all Britain in this match as they went up 3-0, before Shay Neal got one back late in the game.

World champions Australia thrashed Pakistan 5-1 to move up to second , while India beat Malaysia 5-2.

New Zealand play Malaysia tomorrow night.
