VB wins the curtain raiser

Male’, MALDIVES – VB sports won Milo Charity Shield game by beating 10-men Victory by 4-1. The game was deadlocked at 1-1 at the end of regular time but VB appeared too strong for Victory in the extra period of the game. Last season’s top scorer Ashfaaq started the season where he finished with some quality movements and two goals.
It was Victory that took the lead. In the 16th minute Shimaz headed Mukhthar’s cross from close range to send the ball to the far corner.
The whole game changed in the 30th minute when referee mistakenly red carded Victory defender Shafiu for a hand ball. But TV replay clearly showed the player headed Abu’s header from the goal line. Abu then stepped into take the penalty and made not mistake in the 34th minute.
In the 52nd minute, Ashfaaq went close to his first of the season, but his shot missed by inches.
In the 66th minute Ashfaaq’s effort to score was blocked by his brother Ashfaan.
Just five minutes into the extra period, Ashfaaq scored from some individual skills as his shot found the net from the near angle.
In the 108th minute, Assad Ali extended their lead taking advantage of some poor defensive display from Victory. Two minutes later Ashfaaq doubled his lead, this time he moved too quickly to be spotted by Victory defenders and send the ball past Faisal.

Ali Ashfaaq was named as the man of the match.
