The game witnessed around hundreds of spectators out in stands to watch the local derby. The game began with end to end football however neither side managed to break the deadlock. Maryland United’s defender Hekmat Singh was the star of show leading his team’s defence with regular tackles, interception and clearance as the free scoring Fleet Footers, who had smashed 19 goals in just two games, found it difficult to break a resolute defence.
In the second half, deadlock was finally broken as Fleet Footers took the lead after Karan’s strike found the net. The goal opened up the game as Maryland put numbers in front in search of equaliser. With 10 minutes to go, Maryland were awarded a freekick just outside the box which was well converted into the goal by Oniel D’Souza to pull things back on level terms. Six minutes later, Fleet Footers restored their goal lead when Grenville Morzelo found himself space to dribble past defenders before shooting the ball the keeper. Despite some late attempts from Maryland to find the equaliser, no goals were further scored as the game ended at 2-1 score line.
