#5 Gujarat emerge winners in battle of the elite
While there have been a few teams who have done well this season, Gujarat and Patna have dominated. Prior to tonight, Patna had 10 wins in 18 games, Gujarat had 9 in 16. Patna's score difference stood at a healthy 70 points, Patna were just a couple points behind at 68.
This was a contest between two well-drilled teams who are very much aware of their strengths and weaknesses. The match held a lot of promise and it did not fail us. Patna and Gujarat traded heavy blows regularly and it made for a mouth-watering affair. Neither side could inflict an all out in the first half.
The second was a nail-biter, Patna executed four super tackles on the trot to come back from the dead. They gave Gujarat a run for their money late on but the Fortunegiants held on for a memorable victory.
