Federation Cup 2011 Final: Salgaocar win the trophy

Federation Cup 2011 Final
Salgaocar Win the Trophy

                                                         

East Bengal 1-3 Salgaocar SC

EB: Alan Gow(Pen 26')

SSC: Chidi Edeh(8'), Francis Fernandes(19'),Ryuiji Sueoka(66')

FPAI Coach of the year Karim Bencherifa made a double after they clinched the Federation Cup glory after winning the i-League. It was a disciplined performance from the Goan side as they shocked the home team taking a two goal lead in no time thanks to some poor defending from the Red and Golds. The East Bengal players never looked to have the winning attitude right from the offset. The things got even worse when Mehtab Hussain had to leave the ground as he went down in a collision and aggravated his injury which meant that Sanju Pradhan had to replace him. East Bengal then had to face the heat of the Salgaocar front line expertly lead by Chidi Edeh. East Bengal seemed to have chosen the aerial balls for feeding their forwards but it was the Salgaocar SC captain Luciano Sarbosa who stood like a wall and won nearly every possible aerial balls. Second half saw the introduction of Tolgay Ozbey, but that move did not pay off for the Red and Golds as he failed to make any possible impact with the midfielder failing to provide good balls to them.

The win for Salgaocar meant they won the Federation Cup after a gap of 14 years as they last won the trophy in 1997. Salgaocar SC thus will receive a sum of 25 Lakhs INR whereas runner up East Bengal will get 15 Lakh INR.

Its Bengal vs Goa final in the 33rd Edition of the Federation Cup, East Bengal will be facing i-League champions Salgaocar SC. Both the teams had to face stern opponents in the semi-finals to book a seat in the finals and there were some controversial moments in the way. It will be East Bengal's third successive finals and they have won both the times. The Red and Gold will be looking to complete their hat-trick and they do have the squad to make it a success.

Meanwhile, it is Salgaocar's first final in 14 years and they also will be looking to make a good use of it. Being awarded the best Coach of the year in the FPAI awards 2011, Karim Bencherifa's boys have made a name for themselves with rock solid defence who are yet to concede a single goal in the tournament.

East Bengal will meanwhile be facing problems with Mehtab Hussain and Raju Gaikwad still on the injury list. In-form forward Robin Singh has recovered from his injury and will be available for selection. The crowd will be a sure advantage for East Bengal as they will be playing at their home ground. Karim Bencherifa's experience in Kolkata will be a boost for Salgaocar and they will hope to utilize it in every way possible.

The match will be broadcasted live on DD sports and News Times from 6PM.

Federation Cup 2011 Second Semi Final: East Bengal reach finals after poor refereeing show

Federation Cup 2011 Second Semi Finals

                                                     

Prayag United SC   1 - 2  East Bengal

PU: Snehasish Dutta 16'

EB : Alan Gow (Pen 37'), Paite 82' 

Red Cards: Josimar (Prayag United,77'), Deepak Mondal(Prayag United, 81')

East Bengal reached the finals of the 33rd edition of Federation Cup after some poor refereeing show on display by the on field referees. Prayag United played their heart out but in the end the two red cards shown against them proved to be too much to handle.

The referee flashed Joshimar a second yellow, when Joshimar unnecessarily lunged into an East Bengal player off the ball in the East Bengal box. While the second yellow card seemed justified, the first one for Josimar was unnecessary. The incident took place when Sandip Nandi seemed to have fouled the Brazilian forward but referee waived away the protests and instead showed a yellow card to Josimar. Moments after that Nirmal Chhetri, who was the last man in defence, fouled Josimar but for some strange reason the referee gave a Yellow card where one can expect a straight Red. Then came the 75th minute, where Josimar was given a second booking and had to leave the field. Ex-Indian International Deepak Mondal was given the marching orders shortly after that for a sliding tackle on a East Bengal forward. The match winning goal was scored few minutes after the two Red Cards in the 82nd minute when Khem Thang Paite scored from a sweet right footed shot outside the box.

There were several other moments in the match when the refereeing decisions was questionable. Some clear goal bound opportunities were declared offside and one has to agree that it was Prayag United which had to face the heat of it. Even the final whistle was blown when Prayag United were completely into attack and still there were good 40 seconds left in the clock. Such was the disappointment that Prayag United Skipper Lalkamal Bhowmick hugged the on-field referee seconds after the final whistle. The midfielder was quite clearly annoyed about the bad refereeing and did his best to express it.

Nevertheless, East Bengal will face Salgaocar SC in the final of the Federation Cup 2011 on 29th October.

Its the battle of the Kolkata clubs, but this time its Prayag United instead of Mohun Bagan. The winner of this match will face the Goan side of Karim Bencherifa - Salgaocar SC. Both sides are yet to taste defeat in this years Federation Cup. Prayag United spearheaded by their skipper Lalkamal Bhowmick could be termed as underdogs for the match but in no way are less competitive than their counterparts. Both of the teams had to sweat out hard in order to secure the qualification for Semi Finals. While Lalkamal will be the epicenter of all Prayag United's chances, East Bengal will be relying on Penn Orji to do the same job if Mehtab Hussain does not feature in the match for them. East Bengal's side would not have forgotten their opponent Prayag United( then known as Chirag United) when they(Prayag United) broke their 18 game winning streak last year in the Durand Cup. East Bengal will be hoping that the injury concerns  to several key players does not harm their chances in reaching the finals this time around. The list might seem demotivating to the East Bengal supporters as several key players: Mehtab Hussain, Tolgay Ozbey, Penn Orji, Raju Gaikwad have injury concerns.

East Bengal's latest recruit, Alan Gow, who have scored once in the Federation Cup 2011, will be available for selection after serving his one match suspension. Tolgay might not feature in the starting XI which will mean that Gow might have to pair up with Baljit Sahini in absence of Robin Singh(suspended due to two yellows). Hramanjot Khabra and Penn Orji might have to cover the midfield if Mehtab Hussain does not feature in the tie.

Prayag United will be banking on their all-foreign attack of Yusif Yakubu and Joshimar to score against Uga Okpara headed East Bengal backline. Lalkamal Bhowmick will have the pivotal role in the central region to feed their forwards.

The match will be broadcasted live on News Times and DD Sports from 6PM. 

The Lajong Way of Football

Despite crashing out of the Federation Cup 2011 Semi finals, the club from North East- Shillong Lajong FC gave a glimpse of what Indian Football has been missing for quite some time. Shillong Lajong made it through to the Semi Finals despite all odds, with teams like Mohun Bagan and Churchill Brothers in the same group. They could not have picked any worse team for themselves other than the i-League champions Salgaocar SC in the Semi Finals. But instead of bogging down under pressure the team responded mightily and gave a good account of themselves against the Karim Bencherifa's side by playing a completely different brand of football which has been missing among the Indian Footballing Arena.

We saw possession football at its very best with Shillong Lajong getting as much as 55% of ball possession in the first half. Quick passes, Deft touches, quick One-Twos combined with Unmatched speed was seen on display. It has been quite often seen that Indian players tend to tire after the 60-65 minutes mark and eventually the game speed decreases rapidly but the young boys from North East were seen making darting runs from both flanks. 

Doesn't John Menyongar(left) looks similar to Shaun Wright Phillips(right) of QPR

                                                                

One such player who produced a scintillating performance was Liberian born John Menyongar, an ex-United Sikkim FC. The little man whose face and physique might seem like Shaun Wright Phillips of Queens Park Rangers to some English Premier League fans dazzled the defence of most of the teams with his quick feets and turns.The little man seemed lively throughout his time in the pitch showing all kind of dribbling ability combined with pin point accurate passing. He also produced some very good shots from nowhere. He managed to get on the score sheet twice in this years Federation Cup.

Boithang Haokip, Winger

One other player which deserves a mention, Boithang Haokip from Shillong Lajong, not only did he control the midfield but his quickness and tireless stamina was a treat to watch. The way the lad produced bursts of speed and took some good shots at the goal was a joy to watch. Boithang might be a good prospect for the National team considering his exceptional workrate.

The brand of football that Shillong Lajong FC produced has turned many heads towards them. Their Speed and Stamina is unmatched along with the technical aspect. One can undoubtedly say that the number of passes that play on ground can be hardly seen among any other teams in the country. Some analysts might argue that their Physique does not support much aerial gameplay, but lets face it, whatever it is, it looks good and with some quality it will undoubtedly be a Hit. Indian football has been largely plagued by unnecessary long balls and thats what young fans hate to see. Perhaps its time to change and welcome the new brand of Football. We call it - "The Lajong Way of Football".

Federation Cup 2011 First Semi Final: Salgaocar lucky to beat Lajong

Salgaocar SC makes it to the finals of Federation Cup 2011

Salgaocar SC 1-0 Shillong Lajong FC 

SSC: Chidi Edeh(89')

Despite all odds tipped against Shillong Lajong FC, it was a stellar show by the North Eastern boys which they bravely put up in front of i-League Champions Salgaocar SC but thanks to a late strike by ex-Mohun Bagan forward Chidi Edeh, Karim Bencherifa's side had the last laugh. It was Shillong Lajong FC who had dogs share of possession in the first half, they controlled the game with good number of short passes but failed to make any impact of that amount of possession as they missed the final delivery. The first half scoreline read goalless for both teams.

Chidi Edeh's late strike takes
 Salgaocar SC to the Finals

With the pressure on Salgaocar SC to break the deadlock, Salgaocar started the proceeding with some brisk attacks in the Lajong box but the North Eastern side defended well to avoid any casualties. Lajong came back to their possession play with quick passes all around. It was Salgaocar who was gifted a golden opportunity to gain the lead when Japanese forward Ryuji Sueoka found himself with a one on one against Lajong FC custodian Lalthuammawia Ralte but Sueoka's shot was palmed away by Ralte. Lajong at one moment looked destined for an upset with several attacks at the Salgaocar SC goal but Indian International Karanjeet Singh was up to his mark making several good saves. It was Liberian born John Menyongar who played with Luciano Sarbosa lead Salgaocar defence with his twist and turns. As the game seemed destined to go for extra time, Chidi Edeh turned the game on its head when he came close to connect from Juniors pass, Shillong Lajong FC goalkeeper came off his line but failed to grab the ball and Chidi Edeh managed to lob the ball over the Goalkeeper and a defender, eventually leading to a goal. The goal came in the 89th minute which meant that Pradhyum Reddy's team did not have enough time to score the equalizer and Salgaocar SC advanced to the finals of 33rd Edition of Federation Cup. Salgaocar SC will be facing the winners of East Bengal and Prayag United in the finals.

East Bengal and Shillong Lajong Makes it Though to the Semis

Group A: Shillong Lajong FC make it to the Semis Thanks to Mohun Bagan

Johnny Menyogar, 2 goals from
3 matches

If anybody would have guessed a team to go through to the Semis, he would not have guessed Shillong Lajong in the presence of giant teams like Mohun Bagan and Churchill Brothers. It was a really close encounter for Shillong Lajong FC when they knew that they have qualified for the Semi Finals of 33rd Edition of Federation Cup. If Mohun Bagan failed to make an impact on the first major tournament of the 2011-12 season, they did a favour for the North East Club by stopping Goan outfit Churchill Brothers from making it to the Semi-Final stage. Prior to the match played between Mohun Bagan and Churchill Brothers, Shillong Lajong played its last league encounter against Royal Wahingdoh (who was by then the toppers of the group) and Shillong Lajong managed to defeat their rivals with the solitary goal coming at the 42nd minute thanks to Ex-United Sikkim forward Johnny Menyongar. Thus Churchill Managed only 4 points from their three matches, and Royal Wahingdoh managed 6 points which was same as of Shillong Lajong FC. But thanks to their win against Royal Wahingdoh they made it to the semis.

Group C: East Bengal make it after defeating Dempo

Robin Singh, on target again

Unlike Group A, East Bengal did not have to rely on others for their qualification but had to do it themselves, and they did it against the i-League Champions Dempo SC. Robin Singh was on target again for the Red and golds thanks to a solid assist from Australian Tolgay Ozbey. That goal proved to be decisive factor at the end as East Bengal managed to hold on to the same scoreline. There were some controversial moments when Tolgay was found guilty of handling the ball inside the Penalty box but the referee decided to give a free kick which was not converted. Thus it meant East Bengal finished with 7 points ahead of Dempo with 3 points and Pune FC with 4 points.

The first day of Federation Cup saw upsets and that too were huge ones. While Mohun Bagan and Dempo SC lost their respective games, East Bengal were held to a draw. Only Churchill Brothers managed to register a convincing victory as expected.

                                            Mohun Bagan   1 - 2   Royal Wahingdoh

Mohun Bagan had a good start to the match against i-League 2nd Division side, Royal Wahingdoh who qualified through the Preliminary stages. It was Indian International Sunil Chhetri, who found himself in a one-one situation against the Royal Wahingdoh custodian Karma, Chhetri managed to beat Karma but only to see his shot hit the left post and ricocheted back to him, but Chhetri again somehow managed to hit the post from a more acute angle with an open net as the ball went out. Mohun Bagan dominated most of the game but it was Royal who took the lead against the run of play with a fluid Counter attack, which was ended by Chencho who headed the ball from close range. The Mohun Bagan custodian, Shilton was too slow to react and his boots seemed to have stuck in the ground as he put a very lame effort. Mohun Bagan were reduced to 10 men thanks to some silly fouls by N.P.Pradeep which saw him getting his second yellow. The second goal came just after five minutes as where Chencho again scored of a close range with the Mohun Bagan defence at bay making it an embarrassing 2-0. Introduction of Brazilian Hudson Lima seemed to make some impact on the Mohun Bagan team as they created more chances. Ashim Biswas gave Mohun Bagan some hope as he managed to score from a Barreto's pass in the 75th minute which made the scoreline 2-1, but much to the disappointment of the Mohun Bagan fans the scoreline remained the same.

East Bengal   1 - 1   Mohammedan SC

East Bengal started their campaign against another Kolkata outfit, Mohammedan Sporting. Mohammedan Sporting played at a frantic pace against the Red and Golds in the first half despite being the underdogs. They managed to match East Bengal in every department. It was the 17th minute which saw the Red and Golds fall behind when South Korean recruit  Han Wook was tripped by Sandip Nandy, with the referee eventually giving a spot kick. Another foreign recruit Stanly Scored from the spot kick with a calm finish from his outside boot. Second half saw East Bengal equalizing through their captain Sanju Pradhan. In the 48th minute, a corner for East Bengal was steered to Sanju's way, from where the East Bengal Captain struck a ferocious shot, which saw Mohammedan Goalkeeper left stunned at his mark. East Bengal tried their best to gain the lead but resilient Mohammedan managed to hold on to a draw.
