Maymar’s frontrunners Mohammad Naseem, Mudassar, Taimur and Mohammad Ashraf together with midfielders Qayyum Jan and Shahnawaz launched several attacks on their opponents from the very start of the match.

The score at interval was 1-0.

Mauripur made a substitution in the form of striker Khalid Sakhi in the 52nd minute, which went in their favour when Khalid’s attempt from just outside the penalty box only a minute later could not be reached in time by Maymar’s goalkeeper Hameedullah as his opponents restored parity.

Maymar Sports got ahead again in the 60th minute when a halfhearted clearance from Mauripur’s goalie Wajid was received and headed in by Maymar’s striker Mohammad Naseem before it could reach his rival. But another substitute player Sami Samad came to the rescue of Mauripur Baloch when he shot in the ball over goalkeeper Hameedullah’s head from 30 yards just five minutes before the final whistle.

The match also saw Mauripur’s Farooq Rehman get a red card and Zohaib Baloch receive a warning in the form of a yellow one from referee Younus Lal.
