Roots, Gokulam share hornors in Stafford Cup, MEG and Dempo game too ends in stalemate

KSFA Media 

The Stafford Challenge Cup kicked off again after 30 years with both games ending in a draw at the Bangalore Football Stadium.

In the inaugural game, Group B's Roots FC of Bengaluru took the lead but were held to 1-1  draw by Gokulam FC, Kerala . In Group A, local challengers MEG went ahead only for Dempo SC, Goa, to equalize in the second half. 

The newly formed Roots FC were a revelation. They played an attacking brand of football and stretched their opponents on both flanks with some astute crosses. The wingers responded well and provided many harrowing moments to the Gokulam defence, but lack of finishing prevented them from scoring in the first half. They were once out of luck when Vignesh’s powerful long ranger hit the post while the goalkeeper was out of position. 

Roots began with a bang in the second half with Vignesh missing an open chance - he placed the ball over the cross bar while aiming the ball into the empty net. However, they forged ahead in the 64th minute when Yohan Victor Britto bulged the net from inside the 6-yard box from the right side.

They fell back on defence as Gokulam came back with some spirited moves to restore parity. They exerted pressure and their efforts bore fruit in the 87th minute when they were awarded a penalty. Roots defence Mohan Bahadur handled the ball inside the area and Referee Anil Gulia pointed to the spot. Substitute Samuel Mensah Konney made no mistake placing it home. 

The two teams then closed shop and were content to go home with a point each.

MEG held by Dempo 

Madras Engineer Group & Centre, Bengaluru, were held to a 1-1 draw by Dempo SC, Goa in the second match of the day. The Sappers were a dominant for most part of the game against the young Dempo side.

They did well to take the lead as well in the 16th minute when their tall stopper Ayush headed home a lob from Imnaakum. They stretched the flanks wide and had more of the ball but did not succeed in extending the lead. MEG also played wide apart and looked a rather tired lot in the second half.

Sensing their chance, Dempo indulged in their short passing game and built several moves. The through passes were struck a bit long and hard. Yet, they managed to come more into the attacking picture. A pile-driver from Shreyash Gajanan Naik was put out at the last minute by MEG goalkeeper Pramod Joshi as he dived low to his right. A lob from Adnold Antonio saw Topon Minj hit wide from close range.

Dempo restored parity in the 86th minute when Arnold’s lob was headed across the goal by Topon and Shreyash Gajanan managed to scramble it home after a goalmouth melee. For the equaliser. There was not much time left for any team to go for the winner and they went home with a point each.

 

Seven from Bangalore in Services team

While we wait for tomorrow’s final group game against Odisha to see Karnataka moving to the last four of the 76th Santosh Trophy, Services with 10 points (3 wins, one draw) became the first team to secure a place in the semi-final spot be played at the King Fahd Stadium in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. 

This year’s Services team got several players from the Garden City who have excelled in BDFA Super Division League for many years –ASC’s Jashandeep Singh, Deepak Singh, Oinam Gautam Singh, Safeel PP and MEG’s Liton Shil and Christopher are seen turning out for Services in the ongoing Santosh Trophy played in Odisha. The head coach Mileswamy Govindaraju Ramachandran too is from Bangalore, coming from the ranks of ASC football team. 

While MEG’s and now a part of the Army Red team, Liton Shil seems to be the most popular, his colleague Christopher too scored regularly for MEG in the league until few seasons back. The ASC players are relatively new in the setup but have made an impression. Shafeel was a part of the Karnataka Santosh Trophy campaign four year back.

FCBU sparkle with 3-0 win over MEG

FCBU Media 

Defending champions FC Bengaluru United put on a stellar display to beat MEG 3-0 in their third game of the BDFA Super Division Championship 2021-22 at the Bangalore Football Stadium. Luka Majcen scored a brace (50, 70) and Aenem G Jyrwa chipped in as well (24) as FCBU kept up the momentum from their previous game to record their second consecutive win in the tournament.

FCBU made an aggressive start, testing the MEG defense from the get go. The first ten minutes saw FCBU consistently in MEG’s half, creating half chances through corners and free kicks and MEG had to work hard to keep FCBU’s headers out. The deadlock was broken in the 23rd minute – a strong counterattack by Luka Majcen saw him wrest the ball from the MEG midfielders and pass it on to Ronaldo Oliviera. With a series of deft touches, Ronaldo dribbled past the MEG defense to square it across the box to Aenam who tapped it in neatly to get FCBU on the scoreboard. FCBU kept up the pressure right through the first half, consistently attacking the goal. MEG slowly picked up the pace as well towards the end of the first half, but the FCBU defense held strong to keep them at bay.

FCBU began the second half on a strong note creating a chance within the first five minutes of resumption. A cross from Ronaldo in the wings was headed by Luka towards the goal only to be carried away by the MEG defender for a handball. FCBU were awarded a penalty that was cleanly put away by Luka to put FCBU 2-0 up in the 50th minute. Despite being 2-0 up, the defending champions didn’t get their foot off the pedal – in the 70th minute Subash Singh, who came in as a substitute in the second half, crafted a strong run right to the box setting up Aenem, who smartly back flicked the ball to Luka for the Slovenian to score his second goal of the game.

Shivasakthi comes in clutch as Bengaluru FC boys down MEG

Bengaluru FC Media 

An injury time strike from top-scorer Shivasakthi gave Bengaluru FC a 1-0 win over MEG & Centre, at the Bengaluru Football Stadium, on Thursday. The result sees the Blue Colts leapfrog FC Bengaluru United to go top of the BDFA Super Division League table with two games left to play in the competition.

In what was an evenly contested first half, both teams fought hard to assert themselves on the game throughout the opening half hour. Chances were at a premium, and it was the Blue Colts who went close to getting the opening goal on three separate occasions through Shivasakthi.

First, the no. 9 managed to wriggle past multiple challenges and beat MEG custodian Pramod Joshi with a low shot, only to see the ball bounce off the far post. Moments later, Damaitphang Lyngdoh won the ball in the middle and picked out Sivasakthi’s run into the box but the striker’s shot sailed inches wide of the far post. The Blue Colts striker saw a third chance go begging when his attempt to divert goalward from Jagdeep’s low cross went wide of the mark.

The second half saw MEG start on the front foot, and the Blue Colts defended in numbers to keep the game goalless. ’Keeper Sharon Sivan pulled off two fantastic saves, first tipping Shubham Rana’s shot over the bar and then getting his hand to Imnaakum’s effort from close range.

Pushing forward with intent, Bengaluru found their goal deep into injury time when Shivasakthi got to the end of Omega Vanlalruaituanga’s ball over the MEG backline. Having beaten defender Nitin with his first touch, the 19-year-old rounded Joshi, who had made his way out of the box, and then kept his composure to finish low past stranded MEG defenders to give the Blue Colts the win with what was the final attack of the day.

Bengaluru FC are back in action on March 8 when they take on FC Bengaluru United. A win on Monday will hand Bhoite’s side the title with an unassailable lead atop the standings.

FC Bengaluru halt MEG's winning run, thrash them by 4 goals

FC Bengaluru United Media 

FC Bengaluru United putting their most commanding performance of the league when it mattered the most routed MEG 4-0 in the seventh game of the ongoing BDFA Super Division Campaign. MEG were coming off the back of an all-win run, but United combined skill with alacrity and aggression to emerge worthy victors.

United’s positive intent was evident from the word go as they hit the ground running, putting the MEG defence under tremendous pressure. MEG finally succumbed in the 22nd minute when a cross from Ronaldo, which was deflected by the defender, was picked up by an alert Malem, who neatly shot the ball into the top corner of the goal. 

MEG tried to respond a few minutes later, but the header after a good throw in was just wide of the goal. FC Bengaluru United not lifting their foot off the pedal, created chances at will with Chaitan, Ronaldo, Malem, and Hayden in the thick of the action. In the 37th minute Arun made the most of a defensive lapse to regain control of the ball and feed it to Ronaldo who did not make any mistake.  

The second half was no different as FC Bengaluru United continued their domination. Despite the 2-0 lead, they did not let the intensity dip, attacking the MEG defence with strong wing play and quick counters. In the 73rd minute, Chaitan’s nimble play was parried away by the MEG keeper, only to find Vignesh who calmly tapped the ball in. 

3-0 soon became 4-0 in the 82nd minute when Vignesh’s through ball was deftly taken by Anup all the way into the box for Chaitan to complete the finishing touches.

An emphatic performance from FC Bengaluru United, perhaps their most dominating effort so far!

 

FC Bengaluru hammer Dream United 6-0

FC Bengaluru United Media

FC Bengaluru United continued their dominant march in BDFA Super Division campaign sweeping Dream United 6-0 in their fourth game. United began the game in similar fashion to their previous three outings – on the ball right away. Chaitan and Ronaldo combined to put away a Hayden freekick to get them on the scoreboard in the 15th minute.

 

From then onwards, it was largely a one-team show with FC Bengaluru United taking control of the proceedings with strong attacking play, through balls, and so on. Their defense held strong when Bangalore Dream United had their brief attacking forays, which were immediately counter-attacked with goal-scoring runs.

 

The half-time score of 4-0 was soon pushed to 6-0 with substitutes Asrar and Joshua making an immediate impact.

 

A commanding performance thus far and FC Bengaluru United will be keen to keep up the ascendancy in the upcoming games.

 

Bengaluru United beat ADE 4-0

FC Bengaluru United Media 

FC Bengaluru United turned in an emphatic performance yet again to beat ADE FC 4-0 in their third game of the BDFA Super Division Campaign. Dominant from the word go, FC Bengaluru United kept their foot on the pedal throughout to secure a hat trick of wins in the tournament.

FC Bengaluru United started off playing aggressively, a move that soon yielded rich dividends. Jaison got them on the scoreboard with a beautiful goal curled in from just inside the top box. A smart assist from Kiran to Chetan saw him dribble adroitly past two defenders and FC Bengaluru United were up 2-0 in 35 minutes. And their defense game was on point as well – with ADE FC barely getting any chances on the goal.

FC Bengaluru United didn’t let the momentum slip in the second half – and much like their first game against Income Tax, their substitutes too had a say! Malem, who came on around the 50th minute, took charge of a cross from Ronald and netted it safely into the goal. And in the 72nd minute, Ronaldo scored off a free kick to top off what has been a commanding performance from FC Bengaluru United thus far- strong in attack and sturdy in defense!  

Akbar's brace help MEG beat Dream United

Akbar Sidhique struck twice in each half and sealed the victory for MEG against Dream United in the Citrus Ventures BDFA Super Division league played at the Bangalore Football Stadium this evening. 

Dream United, relatively an inexperienced side comprising players from their academy setup with an average age of 19, tried hard in the second half reduced margin after forcing a penalty before MEG scored their third and bottling the game up. 

After coaching MEG for 8 seasons and helping the team to reach great heights, which included couple of BDFA Super Division title, Puttiah Memorial Cup, and several national level tournaments, head coach Shaji SP was seen in the opponent bench. Shaji has been associated with Dream United for past few years. 

In the first match of the day, FC Bengaluru United defeated ADE 4-2. 

 

South United battle out a draw against MEG

South United Media 

South United started well by taking a lead in the 21st minute but squandered control of to MEG’s well drilled performance. 

Their bright start in the game meant that South United FC had MEG on the backfoot early on with most of the play flowing through their forward Riswanali.  It was fitting that the opening goal of the game came from him.

SUFC continued to attack for the most part of the first half but found it difficult to put away the chances they were creating. The only real chances that fell MEG’s way came towards the end of the first half as they started to capitalise on some poor giveaways from SUFC. They made the best of those chances in added time at the end of the first half as Hemanth put away his shot to equalise for MEG.

The second half saw some tables turning in the favour of MEG’s attack. Though, not threatening on every attack, their direct play saw South United struggling for a response. Whereas they had been clinical in the last few minutes of the first half, MEG were struggling to get on the end of their chances and finish them off.

South United’s fight back came midway through the first half and they were unlucky not to take the lead when they were on top, but MEG were quick to suppress any attack that was thrown at them. The game was on a knife’s edge for the last few minutes but the cagey nature of the game meant that neither team risked it all to get the three points.
