Mumbai Customs held Central Railway to a 3-3 draw in the MHA-Super League played at the MHA stadium, Churchgate on Sunday.

Leading 2-1 at the break, the railmen looked comfortable at 3-1 with their talented upcoming striker Haridas scoring a hat-trick.

He started with a penalty conversion in the 25th minute, and followed that with a fine angular pass unleashed from the axis by Amit Singh, to bang it into the net and double the lead.

The third goal came in the latter half from fine efforts from Ajaz Qureshi who after dodging past a couple of Customs defenders accurately released the ball to a well-positioned Haridas, in the 52nd minute.

Customs had gone into the lead early after Suresh Maibam convered an indirect penalty corner in the 21st minute. Thereafter the railmen ran up a 3-1 lead, before Customs equalised.

While the railmen could convert only 1 of their 12 corners, Customs managed three off their 10.
