Reports of City AC (MBSFA): Khadim Trades Cup 2005.
04.07.2005
: City AC 3-1 FCI
[At Baruipur]
Goal Scorers : Sankar Oraon , Tetea Tlau , Lalhimthara
It was a first time in the big arena for the young
boys . They first time the young cadets were playing
professionally in the Kolkata Maidan. With young blood
bubbling and with a lot of shaky nerves , the MBSFA cadets
entered the stage under the City AC banner. However , it
was Sankar Oraon - the captain drew first blood much
against the run of the play off a cross by Tetea A Tlau .
After that it was MBSFA who was all over the turf . The
young legs proved too agile compared to the heavy and
rough legs of the foodmen . It was now Teteas turn to
strike . 2-0 . However , FCI reduced the margin off a
looping counter attack . But ultimately , City AC struck
again , now it was Lalhimthara . City won 3-1 !
09.07.2005

The second match proved to be a great one for MBSFA
cadets . Sankar Oraon scored in the 21st minute and scored
again five mins later . Sanjay Boro then added one to his
kitty . In the second half , Vasum and Lalhimthara
completed the rout before Khidderpore got a consolation
goal . Well , Hats Off to you young guns ! City AC emerged
the group champions.
12.07.2005
: City AC 3-1 Garalgacha [At Janai] Pre Quarter
finals
Goal Scorers : Sankar Oraon (2) , Lalhimthara
The opponents perhaps knew that they wont be able to match
the skills and speed of the academy cadets . They decided
to play in rough . However the young Sankar Oraon opened
the score again in the 25th min and Lalhimthara made it
2-0 in the 35th. Garalagacha got one back but in the mean
time it was young Malswamzualla who was shown the red card
for a rough tackle. Sankar Oron ended the scoring by
jamming in his second goal in the 80th minute .
14.07.2005
: Railway FC 0-3 City AC [At Janai] Quarter Final
Goal Scorers : Sankar Oraon (2) , Lalhimthara
Rough tackles and rough moves awaited the young gun right
from the word go . But the academy cadets were very much
prepared this time . The were very cleverly evading the
sliding tackles attempted by the Railwaymen . And it was
the charismatic captain Sankar Oraon who again pumped in a
brace , and Lalhimthara added one more to his kitty to
derail the Railway men .
16.07.2005
: Eastern Railway 1-0 City AC [At Makardah] Semi Final
Goal Scorers : -------
The honeymoon finally came to and end due to a small
defensive lapse by the young cadets . They started quite
well though , playing short quick passes . However ,
Eastern Railway scored the all important goal much against
the run of the play . Although the MBSFA cadets tried many
a time and got about 3 openings and struck the woodwork
twice , they failed to score and reach the final . However
, it was a really spirited and heartwarming display by the
MBSFA guys . They showed that they are ready for the big
stage at this very early age . Way to Go MBSFA ! Great
Going !
