Despite the rain-halts at Grand Champions Polo Club, the 2 hours 20-minute season finale witnessed a wild finish by Colorado as they held Audi off for a 9-8 victory.
““This was a great way to end the season,” Adolfo Cambiaso said. “It’s always nice to win. I think we deserved to win.”
The Gameplay :
The game started with a 40-minute delay and got halted when 3:51 minutes were left because of the heavy rain.
In the first half. Colorado took a 3-0 lead in the second chukker while Audi found a little bit difficult to cope with Colorado’s passing game. Meanwhile, Ganzi scored the opening goal for Audi in the form of a penalty-2 and soon as Cambiaso missed a goal, he took another chance, racing from 150 yards to end the second chukker by 3-2. The third chukker opened with goals by Del Carril and Kampsen trailing Audi by 4-3 but the moment was short-lived as Colorado posted five consecutive goals for a 9-3 advantage at the end of the fourth chukker. By fifth and sixth chukkers, Audi blasted five consecutive goals but they came short to win the title.
