Greetings,
Kindly find below the *half time match report* of GSPL SF 1 between Sporting Clube de Goa and FC Bardez at Ambelim Sports Complex, Ambelim. *Sporting Clube lead 1-0 at half time * *Full report to be sent soon after final whistle* ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ *MAY 17, AMEBLIM: * The Sporting team came into the semi-final off an impressive 6-0 win over Panjim Footballers. While the FC Bardez side defeated SESA FA 3-1 in the last eight round. The Flaming Oranje relied on a stable line up as they named an unchanged squad, while the Bardez team brought in Hanslum Furtado who was the star sub in the last game. The Bardez side were the first to attack with better tactics and swing shots that tore open the Sporting back line. Jessel Carneiro came close to scoring on two attempts, but his shot was placed inches high from target. The Bardez side kept attempting to find the opening goal as Neville Albuquerque’s powerful long ranger from the half way mark was neatly tapped away by the Sporting custodian. The first half saw a complete domination from the Bardez side who had couple of attempts to convert but failed to score. However, it was the Sporting team who took the lead just before the end of the first half as Alesh Savant crossed the ball inside to which Marcus Mascarenhas headed it in giving the team a 1-0 lead at half time. Kindly find enclosed pictures of today’s game. *Pic Caption*: Players of Sporting Clube de Goa and Salgaocar FC in action at GSPL 2 Match 17 (SF1) at Ambelim Sports Complex, Ambelim on Thursday. *More pictures of the game to be sent along with the final report* *Tomorrow's Fixture: (May 18)* *GSPL 2*: Semi Final 2: Goan FC v.
