Young Boys faced a stern test as they battled Kenkre U-19. Both the teams were not willing to sit back as they wanted to play possession based football starting from the word go. The first half could have seen both teams take a lead. But a brilliant save from Kenkre keeper denied Young boys whereas the crossbar denied a goal for Kenkre U-19 team.

The best chance for Young Boys came midway through the first half in the 25^th minute when a lovely cross down the right was headed towards goal by number 9 Ansari Abid only for the keeper to extend his palm and save. It looked a certain goal until the heroics from the keeper kept the score 0-0.

Kenkre were not done yet and they created a chance of their own switching the wings brilliantly from left to right as number 11 Shimyu Kumar passed a wonderful weighted pass to right back, number 12 Shunthan Pheiray who dodged passed players to cross the ball only for striker, number 10 Alister Anthony to hit the crossbar. Alister stretched his leg out only for his effort to hit the crossbar and stay out as Kenkre were left frustrated. At halftime both teams went in level at 0-0.

We noticed a different Kenkre team in the second half as they were able to press a lot better and construct their attacks well down the flanks as they looked in search of the winner. Apparently that moment came in the 79^th minute when a misplaced pass from the Young Boys midfielder was collected by Kenkre right back Shunthan Pheiray who made a lung bursting run down the right before passing it in the six yard area. A scramble of legs directed the ball towards number 14 Brent Fernandes who made no mistake putting the ball beyond the keeper into the net. A goal which everyone saw coming gave Kenkre the lead. In the final seconds of the game Fernandes had another chance to double the lead but his shot was saved well enough by the Young Boys keeper.

Young Boys were left frustrated in the end whereas Kenkre improved their game as it went on only for them to grab a win. A much needed win after their draw in the previous game.

Vinay Bardhadkar’s goals on either side of the half and Gauraj Surve’s goal midway through the first half gave Serco a well-deserved win over Young Boys.

Serco started the brighter of the two sides playing a pressing game as they unsettled their opponents not allowing them to keep a hold of possession. And they got their reward at the very beginning when a lovely pass was collected by Vinay Bardhadkar who cut in from the right before slotting home a calm and composed finished.

Serco were quick to add to their tally when a wonderful pass through the middle found Gauraj Surve who rounded it off with a simple chip over the outward rushing keeper making it 2-0. The pressing game was giving all the results for Serco. But as the game progressed Young Boys grew into the game launching a few long balls forward trying to panic the Serco defense. And one glorious chance came midway through the first half when Young Boys number 14 who pulled it back for his teammate only to be saved by the Serco keeper and the rebound was cleared off the line.

Majority of Serco’s attacks were down the right hand side as they looked to split the defense and cut back the ball for a team mate. Young Boys finally found the net when a ball in the box was hit on the right side of the post which went in of Serco keeper Rohit Prasad.

At half-time Serco went in with a one goal advantage with the momentum on the side of Young Boys who looked the better side in the final 15 minutes of the first half.

Young Boys started the 2^nd half brighter and were looking to equalise. Serco played a balanced game maintaining their shape and not allowing the opponents any shot on goal. Young Boys failed to capitalise from free-kicks. Just when it looked like they would score a lovely move down the left was finished off by Vinay Bardhadkar controlling the ball from a cross into the net curtailing any chance of a Young Boys come back. The game ended with a 3-1 win for Serco who did the job in the opening 15-20 minutes playing the pressing game. Although Young Boys dominated from the midway of the first half to the midway of second half Serco kept their nerves to grab the third goal and finish off the game.

Prior to the match there was a one minute silence at the venue following the sad demise of Millat FC’s junior player Sharjil Shaikh who lost his life in the tragic blast in Kurla last month.

Millat FC dominated the first-half but their forwards were not clinical in front of the goal which led to a dull goalless draw against Young Boys.

Millat FC’s Karan Khanna came close to find the winner, but his powerful strike rattled the post. On the other end, Young Boys’s star player Ubaid kept dictating YB’s play but a gritty defense of Millat proved too strong for Young Boys.

Danish Qureshi, Asif Khan and Bilal Khan were booked for Millat FC. Their aggressive play dominated Young Boys, although Millat FC failed to capitalize in front of the goal.

Millat FC’s goalkeeper Anas Ishke stood like a wall, who made some terrific saves for Millat. Ubaid, Zaid, Faizan all were on the mark but failed to beat the inform goalkeeper.

Both the teams held each other until the final whistle to draw the match 0-0.
