GTFA aided by Swapnil Patil's hat-trick - incidentally the second of the tournament - swamped Phoenix F.A 'A' 6-0. Miraj United on the other hand did one better and recorded the highest ever full-time score humiliating Phoenix F.A 'A' 7-0.

The one-sided wins surely needs to be looked into by the organisers in terms of having evenly matched encounters else the games stand in poor light in terms of publicty.

Late, Thursday night in an all city-team affair Fatima XI downed Central Railway (Pune Division) 6-1 with Michael Vaz earning the distinction of registering the first hat-trick of the tournament.
