Great Britain's men set up an Olympic quarter-final with India on Sunday despite ending the group stage with a narrow 2-1 defeat by Germany.
Christopher Ruhr gave Germany a 2-0 lead in the second quarter after finding the net through a reverse-stick strike and a penalty flick.
Gareth Furlong's ripping drag-flick pulled a goal back for GB in the fourth quarter before Sam Ward had a strike ruled out in the final minutes with the ball not leaving the D following a short corner.
Germany held on and will face Argentina in their quarter-final on Sunday.
GB also had a goal ruled out in the first quarter when Will Calnan's shot deflected off the forward's foot before hitting the backboard.
