In a match that rose to great heights Comptroller and Auditor General (CAG) trailing by two second quarter goals tied 2-2 at regulation period goals before bowing out to Petroleum Sports Board 2-4 in the penalty shootout.

Later in the exciting second semi-final Railways downed Indian Navy 4-2. Railmen led by 4-0 till 47th minute in the fourth quarter before a rearguard action by Navymen made the score look respectable finding the net twice in last 12 minutes. Navy had many opportunities to score but for captain Pawan Rajbhar and Kuldeep and Cariappa being trifle off colour today. The winners scored twice through man of the match Pratap Lakra.

 

Petroleum boys cordinated well to strike twice in second quarter in quick seccession. Tejas Chavan made the most of a goalmouth skirmish in the 23rd minute. It was followed by a neat penalty corner conversion by Mandeep Antil.
