Two second-half goals from Anand Vishwakarma and Hitesh Bangera proves decisive for Soccer A-Z as Juhu Beach United paid for their poor finishing.

Juhu Beach United had a fine start. Siddharth Kripalani and Tarang Manjeshwar linked up pretty well in the first-half but poor display in the final third were about to hit them hard.

Both, Soccer A-Z and Juhu Beach United somehow managed to showcased their defensive approach as the half-time score was 0-0.

The second-half was more happening than the first-half. On the 46th minute, Anand Vishwakarma opened the scoring with a sublime finish to put Soccer A-Z ahead.

Tarang Manjeshwar could have equalized for Juhu Beach United but his loose shot went just wide off the post.

Soccer A-Z’s Anil came close to double their tally but his right footed shot was well saved by Juhu Beach United’s goalkeeper.

Anil once again was spot when his shot was yet again saved by Juhu Beach United’s goalkeeper.

Yogesh Negi made a solo run where he danced past three defenders but only to see his effort going wide.

Juhu Beach United’s Abhay tried from distance in hope to grab a equalizer but his powerful shot went over the bar.

As Juhu Beach United were desperate to find the late equalizer Hitesh Bangera doubled Soccer A-Z lead to two goals to put the final nail in the coffin.

With this win, Soccer A-Z maintain their fine form this season.

This season Desperados fielded more of a different team as compared to last season, Coach Arik Dass and manager Jayesh Dadarkar have changed others perception towards the Desperados team. Surely their lethal weapon is Aniket Shipe who has now scored 5 goals in two matches, but all this was possible because of their midfield and defense doing their bit very effectively.

Desperados vs Juhu Beach United

Aniket Shipe does have a striker’s sense of how to play in an opponent’s box, not once, not twice but he managed to hit the net 4 times, he grabbed his first in 7th minute when he latched onto a through ball from Kishor Bamania and nicely converted it into a goal. Just after 5 minutes his second goal came through Rajesh Damne. By now Aniket was in the mood, he completed his hat-trick by making a solo run from the half line and slotted home the ball beyond the Juhu Beach United’s goalkeeper in 26th minute. Kishor once again turned provider with his long through ball he nicely set up Aniket, who perfectly lobbed the ball over the onrushing goalkeeper to score his 4th goal.

The Juhu boys were very close to some scoring opportunities but they failed to convert their chances. If they had taken their chances at the right time we would have been in for a very interesting game towards the end. Rajesh Damne hit the cross bar twice, which came to the rescue of Juhu Beach United helping them keep the score line respectable.
