IIIT-H and BHEL Football Club played a friendly football match on 15 September at IIIT-H football ground. It was an intriguing game as both teams were equally matched and fought down to the wire. Team IIIT-H was as competitive as ever and displayed their vigour when they trumped the opponent team 2 goals to 1, after initially trailing by one goal. The two teams started by playing defence during the first half and the score reflected their strategies, remaining 0-0 throughout. Both teams started to press as the second half began. Unfortunately, in the heat and nervousness of the moment, team IIIT-H conceded a goal but managed to pull themselves up by the bootstraps and bounced back, breaking past the enemies defences. The entire team played really well with Yashaswi Pathak  from UG3 scoring 2 goals, resulting in team IIIT-Hyderabad’s victory.
