#1 Intense and feisty semi final at Fatorda Stadium

A colosseum like atmosphere engulfed the Fatorda Stadium and everyone from the players, coaches to the fans looked wound up tonight. Both the match and the bench were equally lively.

The game started on a hectic note with both teams hunting each other down like vultures. The tackles were flying in incessantly. While some of them were inch perfect, a few others were plain cynical.

With the stakes so high, the referee did well to keep the game moving and wasn’t too eager to flash his cards. Unlike the first leg, players from both teams were at each other’s heels like a magnet, rarely giving their opponents time on the ball. The likes of Dudu, Gregory and Sehnaj Singh left no stone unturned to make their presence felt on the pitch.
