One year after our historic triumph over Knights in Ankurit 2012 in Penalties. The memories of the match seems as fresh as a new dawn's dew drops.
- The Goal less first Half.
- Nima Scoring a Brilliant Volley to Put Kinghts 1-0 ahead with 5mins remaining.
We'd thought it was over, dreams shattered again. But fate had different plans.
-Off a Corner, Bikash scored a towering Header. The ball went through the net.
Then, I got this feeling, that this match may well go differently.
-Then The Penalties. It went so far that the goalkeepers had to take penalties yet the result was still a draw.
We missed the First two.
Ang Tashi used his experience and his guile to mentally outdo a few opposition kick takers.
-When the Knight's final spot kick taker hit his shot over the bar, the scenes were jubilant, We had reached the PROMISED land.
What a match that was.
The fear and anxiety of a heartbreak was so long that most of us had gone numb by the time we won.
Its Ankurit 2013 time in Sikkim Manipal Institute of Technology
yet again. And can't believe the lads in green-and-white are'nt around. To show people, to show fanatics, that Victory can be achieved even if you tread the less traveled path, THE FAIR ONE.
