Cavin does it again for Goa Top
Cavin Lobo scored a brace as Goa brighten their chances for a place in the Semis defeating Punjab 3-0 in their second group A league encounter played today at the Salt Lake Stadium. In a gripping encounter, it was all to play for both the teams and arguably it was the best match of the quarterfinal league so far. Both the teams started the match on the aggressive note with Goa looking sharp and combined in comparison to their last match against Karnataka. Milagres Gonsalves saw his right footer sailed over the woodwork as Goa got the first genuine opportunity to score, while Punjab came close through Balraj's right footer, which was marginally wide off the target. At the stroke of the half time, Goa almost scored the opener, but to their frustration, Peter Carvalho shot hit the crossbar with both the teams going for the break with the scoreline reading 0-0. After the breather, Goa stepped up the gas on their opponent and came close to break the jinx through substitutes Adil Khan whose left footer was just off target before Cavin Lobo drew first blood for the Goa in the 57th minute. Cavin exchanged couple of passes with Adil before placing his right footer to the right of Punjab goalkeeper Paramjit Singh. After trailing by a goal, Punjab showed some urgency to level the terms but, once again were left frustrated with Parveen Kumar failing to connect from close range. The JCT striker just needed to tap in a cross from the right, but failed to connect it in the 60th minute. Goa custodian and Captain Felix D'Souza then came up with the save of the day clawing away brilliantly Parveen Kumar's header for a corner. Punjab kept on lurking in the opponents half in search of the equaliser, but Cavin Lobo sealed the match in Goa's favour scoring in the 90th minute before Branco Cardozo headed in a Nicolas Rodrigues flag-kick in the added time. Goa are sitting at the top of Group A with six points from two matches, while Punjab have slipped down to third place after Services defeated Karnataka 2-1 in earlier encounter today.
 
Services down Karnataka Top
Services notched up their first victory in the quarterfinal league edging past Karnataka 2-1 in a Group A encounter played at the Salt Lake Stadium, here on Saturday. After going down to Punjab in the first encounter, Services looked sharp in their attack and spurned in numerous chances in the first half , but failed to break the jinx as the scoreline read 0-0 after the end of the first half proceedings. Services midfielder, Mahesh Rai who had a good day at the office came with the first effort of the match, but to Services dismay, his right footer couldn't trouble the rival goalkeeper. Three minutes later, Karnataka could have scored through former Churchill Brothers striker R.C. Prakash, but he failed to give the desired direction to Ramu V's cross from the right flank. Another chance was wasted by the Services through Shkhohao Tuboi as both the teams shared the spoils at lemon break. After the breather, both the teams brought some lives to the pale encounter with Services breaking the deadlock in the 55th minute through their captain and centre-back Dileep. M finding the target four minutes after Karnataka midfielder Rajendra Prasad hit the woodwork. Dileep headed in a Gordon's free-kick to open the scoring for Services and to give his side the deserved lead. Services kept lurking around their opponent citadel and came close to extend their lead on few occasions. J. Karthigeyan brought Karnataka back to the level terms in the 70th minute after he was left unmarked by the Services defenders; the midfielder had no problem to place his left footer to the near post to find the equaliser for his side. Substitutes Shaji D'Silva then, handed Services three precious points scoring the winner six minutes later as Services kept their hopes alive for a place in the semi-finals, while Karnataka are virtually out of the tournament after going down in both their matches.
