While
Guman
Singh
picked
up
the
first
points
for
U
Mumba,
it
was
Meetu
Sharma
who
got
the
Haryana
Steelers
off
the
mark.
U
Mumba’s
defensive
unit
didn’t
allow
the
Steelers
to
edge
ahead
as
Jai
Bhagwan
and
Co.
inflicted
an
ALL
OUT
to
give
U
Mumba
a
good
lead
as
the
midway
stage
of
the
first
half
approached.

U
Mumba
pressed
home
their
advantage
and
continued
to
pick
up
points
quickly
as
the
Steelers’ task
became
tougher,
in
what
was
a
pacy
game.
However,
Nitin
Rawal
and
Manjeet’s
Super
Tackle
kept
the
Steelers
in
the
hunt.
At
the
midway
point,
U
Mumba
led
17-15,
but,
the
momentum
was
firmly
with
the
Steelers.

U
Mumba
regained
the
momentum
and
surged
ahead
in
the
early
part
of
the
second
half
to
widen
their
lead
further.
But
Amirhossein
Bastami
and
Sushil
led
the
fightback
for
the
Steelers
as
U
Mumba’s
lead
continued
to
reduce
by
the
play.
The
Steelers
took
the
lead
with
less
than
7
minutes
to
go
when
Jaideep
Dahiya
helped
his
team
inflict
an
All
Out.

The
Steelers
fought
hard
in
the
final
phase
of
the
game,
and
seemed
to
have
proceedings
going
their
way,
but
Guman
Singh
picked
up
a
couple
of
crucial
raids
to
help
his
team
clinch
a
thriller.
