    The Black Sticks women aren't happy following a 2-all come-from-behind draw with China in their opening match at the hockey World Cup in The Netherlands


    The New Zealanders needed a late goal from Olivia Merry to share the points, after going ahead in the second quarter through Rose Tynan.

    The Chinese scored both their goals in the third quarter - assistant Black Sticks coach Shea McAleese sums it up.
