Emirates Open - Preparing for the Final
Maserati Polo team will face the defending champions Abu Dhabi Polo Team in the final of UAE’s most prestigious polo tournament, the Emirates Polo Championship on 22nd December , 2017.

Having been defeated by Abu Dhabi Polo team in the qualification match earlier in the tournament, nobody backed the team representing the hosts , Ghantoot Racing & Polo Club, to reach the final. On the other hand, Abu Dhabi have been the favourites from the start and have been undefeated, winning all four of their league matches easily.

The last time these two sides faced each other, Abu Dhabi beat Maserati convincingly by 11-6 . Santiago Cernadas , backed by fellow Argentine professionals, Patricio Cieza and Santiago Gomez Rozario, have gone from strength to strength in the tournament that they are looking to win for the second time in a row and are just one match away from achieving that feat.

There is a small change in the Maserati line-up with Ahmed Bin Dasmal replacing Abdullah. Lucas Diego Alberdi, who has been outstanding all through the tournament will once again line-up alongside fellow Argentinian pros Gregorio Gelsosi and Felipe Llorente. The Maserati team will be looking to seek revenge and would want to give their best to win the most prestigious event on the UAE polo calendar.
