The third day of the Bengaluru leg of Premier Futsal 2017 saw some nail biting moments between the Ronaldinho-led Delhi Dragons and Salgado-led Kerala Cobras as the match ended at 6-4.
Ronaldinho led the team from the front by scoring a brace, with strong support from his teammate De Jesus who got a hat-trick today. Leandro Henrique Cypriano De Jesus netted three goals, once by a strategic pass from Diego Costa, the second time from Ronaldinho and the third one on his own. Delhi ended on a high note with the last goal scored in the dying minutes of the game by none other than Ronaldinho himself.
The Kerala Cobras fell short 2 goals against their opponents for the day. The opening goal was scored by Ton Phi in the second half, which was followed by Salgado who netted a goal in the 27th minute of the game. Daniel Ibanes scored the last goal for the team in the 34th minute and Kerala gained an additional point from a self goal by De Jesus.
Giggs' effort goes in vain
The second game of the day between the Telugu Tigers and Mumbai Warriors was a highly-awaited one as the former picked up an aggressive pace by scoring two goals in the first quarter – one by Peerapat Kaewwilai and Indian player Anupam Vishwakarma.
