DUBAI — Le Royal Meridien Hotel volleyed themselves
into the DSS Inter Hotel Volleyball tournament semi
finals, defeating Four Points Sheraton by two sets to
nil (25-17, 25-22).


In the last quarter final of the volleyball
tournament, Dusit Dubai defeated Traders Hotel by two
sets to nil. Suraj Thapa, Arjun Rana, Euru Prasad and
Bala did their best for the Dusit team. They will meet
J W Marriott Hotel in the semi final. 

Hotel football
Le Meridien AL Aqah got back to their winning ways
after a slight slump in form in the last few games.
They defeated Millenium Airport Hotel 10-3. Al Aqah
scored in the very second minute as Tariq pounced on a
defensive lapse to open the account. They dominated
the game for most of the time and scored two quick
goals in two minutes through Roshan and Ahmed to make
it three nil. Francois and Mohammed made it five nil
just before a hardworking Terry Scott scored for the
Millenium team to end the first half at 5-1. In the
second half Ahmed (2) and Mohammed scored in quick
succession to make it 8-1. Terry Scott was again
instrumental in scoring his side’s second goal before
Francois scored a goal to make the score 8-3. Before
the Millenium team had any idea of a fight back Roshan
and Mohammed completed the tally and romped home 10-3
winners. Le Meridien Al Aqah will meet Jumeirah Beach
Club in the semi finals.

Open football
Dnata Ramp Services stormed into the semi finals of
the Open Football tournament blanking Panjim by four
goals to nil. Hussain put Dnata in the lead with a
superb shot. Hassan increased the tally to two after
five minutes and Saeed made it three nil just before
half time. The second half belonged to Panjim who did
everything but score. Keegan, Joshua and Darryl missed
sitters infront of the Dnata Goal. Hasan completed the
scoring in the dying minutes of the game to emerge 4-0
victors. They will meet Siolim United in the semi
finals. 

Meanwhile, Vaxim Divar secured their place in the semi
finals defeating a stubborn Gmmos team by three goals
to one. Gmmos held the Divar lads at bay for most of
the first half and almost scored themselves when Roy
missed an open goal. Gmmos continued to put the
pressure with Urban and Jerry coming close several
times. Thomas in the Divar goal denied the Gmmos
forwards two sure goals. Russel Rodrigues sprung onto
a loose ball and sent in a fierce shot to open the
account for Divar. Gmmos hit back immediately with Roy
scoring from close range. The first half ended
one-all. The second half was exciting with both teams
going all out to score. Orlando however was on target
for the Divar team and Russel Rosario made sure of the
victory and dashed Gmmos hopes. Divar will meet St
Anthony Pernem in the second semi final today.
