UB Ambaulim enter final Crimson Fernandes was adjudged Man of the Match. The award was presented by Lizeta Fernandes.


MARGAO: Favourites UB Ambaulim booked their place in the final of the Cana-Benaulim Panchayat Cup football tournament with a convincing 2-0 victory over Betalbatim Sporting Club, organised by Dando Boys Club, Benaulim, at St. John Baptist Ground, Dando-Benaulim.

Ambaulim's dominance paid off in the 16th minute when Sowell Fernandes produced a fine run past two defenders before setting up Teron Fernandes, who slotted home to give his side the lead.

Ambaulim continued to control possession and doubled their advantage before the break. Midfielder Mathew Fernandes delivered a curling cross into the box, which took a deflection off Betalbatim defender Elroy and ended up in the back of the net.

Betalbatim attempted to stage a comeback after the interval, but the Ambaulim defence stood firm. Defenders Crimson Fernandes and Ibon Fernandes were outstanding at the back, thwarting every attacking move by their opponents.

Crimson Fernandes was adjudged Man of the Match. The award was presented by Lizeta Fernandes.
