Pre-Quaterfinals Analysis of the Julius Baer Gold Cup 2019
UAE Polo’s on top of the league table at the moment, like Liverpool FC. The Patron of UAE Polo, Sheikha Maitha Bint Mohammed Bin Rashid Al Maktoum a.k.a MRM1’s been planning this since summer last year. The Sheikha mentioned in a comment last summer, that horses were being readied at the farm, and we kid u not, UAE Polo has unleashed H-O-R-S-E-P-O-W-E-R on the Dubai Polo Gold Cup Series Tournament this season. Well-dressed horses, with Italian engines, down to shin boots and bell boots for every pony, whether playing or in reserve.
Now when you place ‘Polo Assassins’ such as Tomas Panelo, Alejandro Muzzio and Playmaker Matias Benoit on well-dressed horses with Italian engines, you end up in only one destination - on top of the League table like Liverpool FC.
The best synergy, chemistry and networking on the field, among players, exist within the UAE Team. Panelo, Muzzio and Benoit set up plays as can be seen in a Basketball game, reminding us of Steph Curry, Kevin Durant and Klay Thompson of the Golden State Warriors, in that particular order. Always in perfect sync and at the right time, they feed MRM1, who like DeMarcus Cousins, hardly passes up on a chance. Last we checked, the Sheikha ‘s the highest goal-scoring amateur in the tournament. We think she’s got it all figured out though. And we’re now figuring what she figured.
UAE Polo also has a lot of wit, like Chelsea back in the day. Here’s an example of what wit does for you. Wit sucks up fouls...yeah that’s right. There are a number of other ways that wits puts you ahead in a game, and UAE Polo knows just how and when to put that skill to very good winning use.
If UAE wins the Gold Cup, history will be made. And as with Usain Bolt, a record will be set which might prove quite difficult to break, even by them.
