The story
Australia defeated Argentina 3–1 in the women’s Olympic hockey final on 29 September 2000. The International Hockey Federation’s historical competition record identifies the match as the gold-medal fixture in Sydney.
How it unfolded
The result awarded Australia the title and Argentina the silver medal. This report concerns women’s field hockey; it is separate from the men’s tournament and from ice hockey competitions.
The wider picture
The FIH record offers access to the underlying match information rather than relying on a later headline. Historical interfaces can display modern navigation around an old fixture, so the tournament name, teams and 2000 match date are the relevant identifiers.
