U Mumba registered their fourth successive win as they beat last-placed Telugu Titans 54-32 in their Pro Kabaddi League Season 10 match at Noida Indoor Stadium on Saturday. Yo Mumba had a host of stars like Ghuman Singh [10 raid points]Renko [8 tackle points] And sombre [8 tackle points] Shine on the big stage.
It was an even match until the 10th minute when both teams were tied on 7 points, with U Mumba coming off the post. Iranian striker Amir Mohammad Zafardanesh executed an amazing attack to eliminate 3 defenders in the 11th minute.
He was back to torment the Giants’ defense once again when he beat Milad Jabbari and Parvesh Bhanswal to make it all the way. 5 minutes before the end of the first half, U Mumba led 17-12.
It was then Ghuman Singh’s turn to go on a brilliant raid as he beat 3 defenders and U Mumba took a 6-point lead at 21-15. The Giants endured more misery and ended the first half with just one man down and were on the receiving end of it all in the 21st minute. Sombir made a massive tackle on Prafull Zaware to complete the level 5 and give his side a 27-18 lead.
The Giants lost the services of their leader Pawan Sehrawat, and fought back through some powerful raids from Rajneesh. A superlative raid from him in the 26th minute saw U Mumba down to two men, but the Men in Orange handled the pressure well as Jai Bhagwan trapped Rajneesh in an iron-clad ankle grip for a superlative tackle. 10 minutes before the end, U Mumba led 34-26.
However, a mistake from Gay saw him miss the block line and the Giants were given another golden opportunity as their opponents were down to 3. But the Giants Raiders failed to capitalize as Yo Mumba executed not 1, not 2, but 3. Super tackle. The three came from the right corner, Rinko.
There was more joy in store for U Mumba as Jai made amends for his previous mistake by eliminating the Titans’ 3-man defense to clinch a super raid and inflict a complete third strike on the Titans. That raid gave U Mumba a 19-point lead, 48-29. The match concluded with a brilliant tackle from Sombir and U Mumba secured their biggest win of the season.
