Wed 4th Mar 2015Zedan secure place in Julius Bär Gold Cup Semi FinalsA win against UAE means Zedan will join Julius Bär Team by Habtoor Polo and Brin Drai in final four
Day 8 in The Julius Bär Gold Cup kicked off with a win for Abu Dhabi in their contest against Desert Palm I. Faris Al Yabhouni’s team produced a solid team performance to defeat their opposition 13 goals to 8, rewarding them with a much needed victory, and a chance of qualifying through to the Semi Finals; Group A’s Desert Palm II, UAE Polo and Abu Dhabi will now have to fight until the end for a place in the final four. The second match of the day however, turned out to be one of the most exciting of the whole tournament. With Zedan facing UAE Polo, and 10 goaler Pablo MacDonough and 9 goaler Lucas Monteverde on opposing line-ups, it was no surprise that these two teams went on to produce a high-scoring match. Throughout the five chukkas, neither side was able to obtain any advantage, until the final chukka when Pablo MacDonough showcased his impressive 10 goal ability to produce a perfectly timed, last-minute attack to give Zedan a 11-10 victory, and a definite place in the tournament’s Semi Finals. Play continues on Friday at the Dubai Polo & Equestrian Club where Julius Bär by Habtoor Polo will face Bin Drai before Ghantoot take on Mahra.
