Kathmandu – Bimal Gharti Magar’s lone goal helped Machhindra secure a spot in the finale of the KP Oli Cup defeating the hosts KP FC 1-0.
Machhindra were the dominant team from the off, and it took them just 19 minutes to break the deadlock. Rajeen Dhimal found Bimal inside the box with a remarkable long pass, who then found the back of the net beyond the reach of Purna Chemjong.
Despite both teams having several opportunities to score, none of the players succeed to write their names on the scoresheet. The win means Machhindra confirms the final date against Satdobato Youth Club who defeated Tribhuban Army Club 6-5 on the sudden date.
The tournament final will be held at Dashrath Rangasala on Wednesday where the winners will receive NRs. 1 million and the runners-up will bag NRs. 5 lakhs.
Likewise, the Most Valuable Player of the tournament will be rewarded with NRs. 1 Lakh. Moreover, the best goalkeeper, the best goal scorer, and the emerging player will earn NRs. 50 thousand each.
Furthermore, the organizers will award NRs. 25,000 to the winning team of each match and 15,000 rupees to the player of the match.
