ABC Benaulim will take on CAC Cansaulim in the final
scheduled for October 19 at the Iranian Club stadium,
Dubai.
============
CAC Cansaulim edge past Vanxim Divar
DUBAI Vaxim Divar were dumped out of the Pehla Cup
by Cansaulim after having two players sent off in the
first half.
Cansaulim overcame nine-man Vanxim Divar 5-4 on
penalties in the first semifinal.
The Chairman of the United Goans Organising comittee &
manager of Vaxim Divar attacked the referee for red
card shown to the two players and the match was held
for 15-20 minutes as the referee refused to start the
match. Later the Chairman of the Organising comittee &
manager of Vaxim Divar were ordered to go out of the
stadium by the referee and the match was re-started.
What a shame for United Goans!!! & the manager of
Vaxim Divar. Well done referee!! keep it up...
In an earlier match, two goals in the second-half by
Oswald Fernandes and Anthony Reveredo earned Goa Vehla
Al Zuari a 2-0 win against AVC Moses Eleven for place
in the plate final.
Divar, the defending champions were reduced to nine
men after Benny Fernandes and Russel Rodrigues were
sent off for fouls.
The two sides failed to break the deadlock after the
regulation period forcing the penalty shoot-out.
Jonathan DSouza, Cruz Dias, Vincent Souza, Ernesto
Fernandes and Agnelo Gomes converted for Cansaulim.
Cosme Monteiro, Henry Carvalho, Santian Colaco and
Creighton were on target for Vanxim Divar while
Derrick DSouza missed.
Vanxim Divar went on early attack for Dino Dias to
create his sides first attempt at goal which was well
dealt with by the defence. Cansaulims keeper,
Venkatish Chimulkar dropped another shot by Dino but
Rody Fernandes managed to clear the goalbound effort
in the third minute.
Benny Fernandes was then sent off, five minutes later,
for a foul on Cansaulims Simon Andrade. Cansaulim
appeared more aggressive after that.
