The game started complicated for Ghantoot that was overpowered by Bin Drai 3 goals to 2 in a full speed first chukker. Things got better for Ghantoot from the second chukker thanks to a great team work, always led by Facundo Sola, today well supported by his other teamates. From the third chukker, Ghantoot took the control of the game and the scoreboard and with a good goal difference could handle the match till the end.
