dramatic encounter, even at the end of full 90 minutes Huraa was leading 3-1

Followed by the late two goals Valencia got golden chances to make it three or even four.
Ronaldo's 93rd minute strike hit the post unfortunately. Valencia certainly
deserved to win, they created numerous chances in which they could
have won the game something like seven goals but unlucky day for them. A
controversial decision lead Huraa to score its second goal. Huraa was
awarded a free kick but before that foul, linesmen waved his flag as Jadaa deliberately committed a
foul on Valencia's Fanthoshi. When Valencia players weren't
ready, referee continued Huraa's free kick. As long as the referee and the two linesmen had been foreigners Valencia
would be the winner undoubtedly)

Bulgarian star Nikolai Donav hit four goals while he missed couple of
golden chances for a double Hat trick. Valencia's defender Fanthoshi scored
an own goal in the first half in which Victory scored three of its five goals from
set pieces - two corners and one free kick. Valencia's impressive Ivory Coast
midfielder Sisee Yousuf, left winger Dhombe and the veteran full goal keeper
Aslam didn't play in this crucial game, which caused them for the defeat since
Victory's four of the five goals had been the mistakes by the inexperienced and
reserve goalkeeper Habeeb. After the game Valencia was eliminated from the

Certainly
Valencia's offensive performance was outstanding in the tournament. Scoring 24
goals in five games at an average of almost five goals per game, with four hat tricks (Ali-Umar 3 - 1
double
and Donav 1) showed how well their frontline was. They defeated Thinadhoo with a record margin of 10-1 to end up the Dhivehi league for them.
Actually if Valencia played with their full goal keeper Aslam Abdul Raheem
against Victory and if the referee hadn't given the Huraa's second goal in the
3 all game, Valencia and New Radiant would be equal with 12 points each and
will play in the final with Valencia winning the shield on goal difference
