Haya clinches playoff spot with win over Ihsan |
Apr 13, 2018 |
This was a big game. One playoff spot, two teams. Something had to give. The game lived up to the hype. Both teams fought valiantly. Early pressure from Haya brought a point shot from Farooq Sani which produced a juicy rebound that Abdul Wahab Mohammed finished off. Things were looking bright for Haya.
Then Ihsan mounted a charge. Driving the play towards Khalid Mufti's net created offensive face offs. From these face-offs, brother Ijaz ripped a couple quick accurate shots to make it 1-1.
Then he did it again to make it 2-1.
Then with about 10 minutes to go, Haya scored 3 consecutive goals. Ihsan made them sweat with a late goal to pull within one, but it was not to be.
Ihsan was a beautiful team to watch this year. They have some very young players and are only going to get better with the experience.
Playoffs are next week!
