The Bentley Emirates Silver Cup continued with two matches on day two. The tournament sees seven teams, up to 18 goals, compete. The final is set to be played on Saturday, February 5.

 

First up, Bangash Dodson & Horrell took on AM Polo. While the former had a 1.5-1 advantage by the end of the first chukka, Benjamin Urquiza scored three unanswered goals to give AM Polo a 4-3.5 advantage in the second. Bangash re-claimed the lead at half time, following a goal by Federico von Potovsky, who picked up the pass from Benjamin Panelo. In the two next chukkas, Benjamin Urquiza, the top scorer of the match, took control of the game and scored to seal an impressive 10-6.5 victory for AM Polo.

 

Next,  Zedan Polo went head-to-head with Clinova-Scone, a team making their debut in the UAE high goal. Amr Zedan’s team managed to control the game and the scoreboard, mostly thanks to Gonzalo Ferrari’s skills, who scored no less than six goals. The two patrons, Amr Zedan and Raja Karim, also gave great performances. Halfway into the third chukka, Facundo Fernández Llorente tied the game at 3-all, but Ferrari who put Zedan back in the lead by half time. Raja Karim managed to tie the game again, before a determined Zedan pushed back, overwhelming their contenders with three unanswered goals. That gave Zedan a two goal advantage with one chukka left to play. In the last, both teams scored a goal, but Zedan were ahead by the time the final bell rang, and they claimed a very important debut win.
