The Nagaland policemen played a fast and co-ordinated game but could not score. However, they found their saviour in goalkeeper Zuthungo, who made three consecutive saves to send the Calcutta outfit out of the coveted meet. Nagaland police will take on Oil India Ltd in the second semi-final on Wednesday. Tomorrow, ASEB will play Peerless in the first semi-final.
