Imphal, February 06 2017:
In what could be termed as a repeat of last year's final, Khurai Polo Club (KPC) and MPSC-A have entered the final of the 32nd N Hazari and Dr N Tombi State polo tournament 2017 held at Mapal Kangjeibung after beating their respective opponents in today's semifinals.
Last year finalists and runners up Khurai PC notched a slender 6-5 win against X-Polo Club thanks to Th Roshan's magnificent strike in the extra chukker.

L Thomson struck a goal each in the second, third and fourth chukker to make it five for KPC.
In reply, Th Jacob hit one goal in the third chukker while L Atangba grabbed a hat trick in the fourth chukker to restore parity.
As the two teams were tied 5-5 in the normal time, extra chukker was added to decide the match winners.
Th Roshan hit one goal for KPC and that eventually propelled the team to the final.
Meanwhile, Ibudhou Thangjing Polo Club -A fell flat fighting holders MPSC-A in the second semifinal.

However, MPSC-A asserted their class and rained down goal after goals in the remaining chukkers as their rivals gave little resistance.
S Bimol hammered in three goals, H Abung Khuman and Th Ranjit scored twice each and M Jawan hit one to seal the deal for MPSC.
The final match will be played on February 8 .
