Kumari Club, July 19, 2008- It was a classic match up between the Pandavs and the Debasters (G) with two controversial goals, an unexpected come back and penalty shootouts in the end. With formidable players on both the sides, both teams played their hearts out. Pandav’s strikers pleagued the opponent’s defense, but the well coordinate Debastor team held their ground.
The first half had a slow build up with rain agitating the play.
However the teams still managed to provide a scintillating game. An error in the D area of the Pandav’s half led to an own goal from the feet of Rajiv Joshi in the 7th minute. Both teams were deadlocked during the rest of the half as neither could manage to change the score.
In the second half the tempo was turned even higher. Bijay Gurung from the Debastor team scored on the very first minute of the second half giving Debastor a comfortable 2 goal lead. After that the Debastors went into the defensive for the rest of the half. The Pandavs took the opportunity to bombard the opponents with shot after shot at the goal. The Debastors stood firm with a well coordinated defense but an unstoppable long range shot from Arjun Lama found its way straight at the back of the net. With their spirits re-lifted, the Pandavs pounded on even harder than before. The Debastors did answer with some half hearted counter attacks but no real chance was created. During the last minutes it looked like the debastor would proceed to the semi finals but a final twist awaited. Taking advantage of a rare lapse of concentration, Rajiv Joshi took the ball off the defenders feet and equalized the score to 2 each at the end of normal time.
Both teams fought hard during the extra 10 minutes time, but couldn’t resolve the draw. The teams were inseparable in the penalties as well until the last ball. A goal from Rupedra Chand and a save from Rajiv in the end gave the Pandavs the victory.
All in all it was definitely one of the best match the tiger five tournament and hats off to both the teams.
