The Green Machine are digesting their first loss at the hands of Haya and try to saturate all the issues leading to the defeat. Haya overshadowed Ikhlas and controlled the pace of the game right to the last drop. Although the green shirts are probably cozy in the standings, they must grasp more points and distance themselves from the basement of the standings, before it gets pressing. Besides GM Amir Multani and Sajid Khan, Azim Siddique has been the offensive dark horse and has clearly evolved his game. Will Farrukh Khan and Wajahat Khan be able to reply to Zuhd's speedy offence?
Zuhd has been soaring high altitudes as of late and remain unbeaten in their last four games. Despite a vigorous second period push, the Purple Platoons blew it up and furnished Ridha with their 4th loss. Now that the movers and shakers have been classified on purple, vengeance will be the focal point for Zuhd this week. Faisal Mehboob, Abdu Sharkawy and Huzaifa Manjara have been solid contributors offensively while Rizwan Ali has broadcasted much poise between the pipes. Has Zuhd matured into a firm contender? Can the purple shirts remain in second place, again?
Player To Watch:
Goaltender Khalid Mufti will need to steal this game. Zuhd comes in with some high aspirations and confidence, can Mufti sour the purple shirt's weekend?
Who's Hot?
You can't blink twice about this but maybe it's time Abdu Sharkawy might've ignited something. Two pivotal goals in his last game! Is this the start to the Sharkawy we knowi.
Burning Questions?
Will Ikhlas be able to take their second place cushion back from Zuhd?
Shukr vs Haya
Remember that thoroughbred that was once on steroids and mauled Yaqeen about a month ago. Well, now that horse has been playing like a sick mule waiting to be put down. Shukr has lost their last two games and need to refocus on the future. With Ridha and Yaqeen in the rear view mirror, the playoff race has geared up. GM Ahmed Ibrahim has been proactive and has reeled in defenseman Nadeem Qureshi to his camp. Shukr's loss of speed will hurt, but can a defensive stud like Qureshi be the antidote to a playoff hungry team? Offensive prowess lacks on this team cause mainly Mohammad Hamoud has been the lone point getter. Shukr needs some scorers, who's in?
What can ya say about Haya? Their all over the map and last week was a gift to them. Yaqeen blundered in every department and basically direct deposited two points over to Coack K & Company. The Misty Marauders plastered Yaqeen in a 5-0 spanking and have ultimately segregated themselves from the remnants of the league. Up next, Shukr. A team that's vying in collecting any imaginable points, yet hurting globally. How will Shukr treat Haya's offensive platter? Ali Murtaza and Arif Khan have been merciless to their opponents and are emblems for the grey shirts. Can Haya craft up another victory?
Player To Watch:
With the dismissal Talib Contractor, Saqib Khokhar will savour the limelight and lead the Blue Crew in the offensive charges.
Who's Hot?
Let's take two. Wesam Issawi and Belal Ahmed both played hard and demonstrated their importance to their squad via the scoresheet.
Burning Questions?
Will a player like Nadeem Qureshi be able to help Shukr realigning their path to the post season?
