Ghantoot and Abu Dhabi started the Dubai Polo Gold Cup tournament with victories


Ghantoot and Abu Dhabi started the Dubai Polo Gold Cup Series 2013, winning their respectives matches against Zedan Polo and Bin Drai.
 
The Gold Cup started with two great games, full of action and suspense.

In the first game of the day at the Dubai Polo & Equestrian Club, Ghantoot defeated Zedan Polo by 5 goals to 4 in a attractive match played with real intensity.

Zedan presented a new team, with Guillermo Healy and Mariano Uranga in substitution of Rodolfo Ducos, injured, and Matías Logiocco. Patron Amr Zedan´s team made a good game against the powerfull foursome of Ghantoot in a match that broke the even score in the final chukka of the game.
Facundo Sola led his team to an important victory in their way to the Gold Cup title scoring the five goals of Ghantoot.

In the second match of the day, Bin Drai battle really hard against Abu Dhabi who finally won the game by 7 goals to 6 in the last 30 seconds of the match.

Abu Dhabi led the game during the first three chukkas but in the last period Bin Drai, with a superb Juanjo Brane, made a great comeback. Saeed Bin Drai´s team tied the game at six goals and had the chance to win the match but an heroic save by Juachi Ambroggio in his goal post and the following attack that ended with a goal by Manuel Elizalde gave Abu Dhabi a dramatic victory.
