Celebrity Clasico 2017, Virat Kohli XI vs Ranbir Kapoor XI: In pictures
Virat Kohli-led All-Heart FC thrashed Ranbir Kapoor's All-Stars FC 6-3 in the Celebrity Clasico, which was played at the Andheri Sports Complex, Mumbai. Former captain and legend MS Dhoni opened the scoring for AHFC as early as in the seventh minute through a deflected shot from outside the box. Soon after, the wicketkeeper-batsman doubled the scoring from a well-placed free-kick. Anniruddha Srikanth then headed in a Kohli cross to triple the lead, however, Shabir Ahluwalia added one for ASFC before the half-time.
The second-half then saw Srikanth convert from the spot before Ranbir Kapoor scored a solo goal to reduce the deficit. The last few minutes were pretty frantic as three goals were scored within 10 minutes, two from AHFC - Jadhav (85') and Kohli (92') and one by ASFC - Aadhar Jain (89').
Here are the best images from the high-profile charity match.
