Sabr steals a late win from Ikhlas Feb 27, 2018
by Luqman Arshad  

This game had many implications, Ikhlas had to break their scoring woes and they had a tough task ahead of them facing the number one seed Sabr. 

Was an even pace from both teams 5 on 5 then on a PP Waqar Khan wired one past Yusuf breaking the scoring up. Ikhlas  needed to score first to keep momentum, but were forced to play  catchup. 

Ikhlas trying to keep their cool  came out with a bit more urgency. Lot of back and forth. Salman Alvi took a clean pass from  Akib off the face off in the offensive zone and  scored past a screened  goalie. Making it a 1-1 game  and giving  Ikhlas a spark. 

Saajid Bhayat scored on a power play late in the game make it  2-1 for Sabr after some suspect officiating. Lots of chances, mixed with a late penalty against Yousaf Sowdagar gave Ikhlas  a 6 on 3. Sadly, Waqar Khan  got  to  the  ball  and cleared it from his zone  into an empty  net. 

Final score 3-1 in a very competitive fast paced game with many penalties from both  teams.
