INDEPENDENCE DAY SOCCER

Arambagh in last four at MSC's cost

STAFF CORRESPONDENT, Rajshahi
Arambagh Krira Sangha rubbed salt into the wounds of Mohammedan Sporting Club as they beat the popular giants 3-1 to move into the semifinals of the Independence Day football tournament at the Rajshahi Stadium yesterday.
Majibur Rahman Ritu struck twice and Ridhon added the other in the second-half as Arambagh came from a goal down in the first-half to eliminate their Dhaka neighbours. It was Mohammedan's third defeat in row after their humiliating 5-1 thrashing at the hands of Abahani and a 1-0 semifinal loss against Muktijoddha in the Federation Cup.
Arambagh will take on Premier League runners-up Sheikh Russel in the first semifinal tomorrow while another Dhaka giants Muktijoddha will meet today's winners of the Abahani-Farashganj match in the second semifinal.
In front of a strong 15,000 crowd, striker Monju gave the Black and Whites a sixth minute lead, heading home a Faisal corner.
Striker Ritu levelled in the 55th minute as his right-footed shot on a Dominic pass bamboozled Mohammedan custodian Biplob. Then his young striking partner Ridhon took the team ahead in the 65th minute.
With one minute left, Ritu fired in a left-footer to seal the margin and later he was adjudged man-of-the-match.
Ramzan Ali of Arambagh KS received marching orders one minute before the final whistle.
Captain and ace striker Alfaz Ahmed spoiled some good chances for Mohammedan and in the 76th minute his right-footed shot hit the left bar.
