Both the teams were strong enough to give tough time to each other and fought hard till the end and when the final whistle was blown at the end of the fourth chukker, the score was draw at 4-4. The match was then decided in the sudden death chuk-ker, where once again a tough fight was witnessed before Ernesto Trotz smashing in the match-winning goal for Barry’s/ BN 2 to claim the coveted Lahore Open Polo trophy.
Ernesto Oscar Trotz was the hero of the final as he played superb polo with quality horse and mallet work and fired in fabulous four goals from the win-ning side. The other key contributors from team Barry’s/BN 2 were Hamza Mawaz Khan and Babar Naseem, who added one goal apiece in the total tally.
The players of team Remounts also did well with pony and mallet and inspired with their con-vincing performances but they failed to finish the match in their team’s favour. —APP
