Jharkhand vs Madhya Pradesh match
New Delhi, September 19, 2016: In a battle for supremacy in pool
B, the boys from Bangladesh Krida Siksha Protisthan (BKSP) walked out of the
Ambedkar Stadium with all guns blazing, having grabbed the lone quarterfinal
spot in the 57th Subroto Cup International Football Tournament here today. They
posted an all-win record in the league stage, keeping their reputation intact.
BKSP join teams from Manipur, Jharkhand and Afghanistan in
the quarterfinals to be played tomorrow. In the first match, Pinjabati will
take on BKSP while in the second, it will be between Utkramit
High School and Esteqal Afghanistan and
both knockout games will be played at the Ambedkar Stadium.
In their last pool engagement, BKSP defeated The Air Force
School (TAFS) 8-0 to edge out Ashoke Nagar Boys Senior Secondary School
from 24 North Parganas (West Bengal) who beat Holy Spirit Institute from Margao
(Goa ) 2-0. What weighed in favour of BKSP was
the 3-2 triumph over the West Bengal
schoolboys yesterday.
Morsalin and Usuf Ali scored a brace each for BKSP while A.
Rehmat, Abbdul Kader, Mohammad Rakib and Tuhidul Islal struck a goal each to
complete what a routine a winning habit for the team. On the other hand, S.
Afzal and Arindam Roy scored for the West Bengal squad in their match against Goa .
In these one-sided pool B matches, Bangladesh boys
outscored in every match, making them a real contender for title. But it
remains to be seen how well they fare tomorrow in the quarters where they will
take on the boys from Manipur. No doubt, both have the wherewithal and how they
face the crunch situation—they were never in trouble against their opponents so
far—will push one of them in while the other out.
In other inconsequential matches both at Ambedkar Stadium
and NWC grounds, St Xavier’s Higher School from Chhattisgarh scored 16 times
without getting a reply in pool D, MSP Higher Secondary School from Kerala,
helped by Shigil’s brace, beat Kendriya Vidyalaya (Gorakhpur) 2-0 in pool C
while Utkramit HS from Jharkhand, having already qualified, completed the
formality when they downed Emerald Heights International School from Indore
6-0.
For Chhattisgar, Neel Bhushan Singh struck seven times,
while contributes came from Akash Lakra, Rahul Kumar Gupta, Arsridul Moha, B.S.
Rajawade and Salimon Toppa. For Jharkhand, Ratan Hansda hit target four times,
including a hat-trick, while Rahul Hembrom and Chhutur Kisku opened their
accounts.
With the school from Punjab not reporting for the
tournament, AFBBS were given walkover in pool D. Joydeep Gogoi, with another
hat-trick, did well for the Betkuchi outfit from Assam
against the Government School from Lakshadweep ,
with Shakti Moran joining the party in yet another inconsequential game.
