The second edition of this one-of-a-kind, five-a-side football tournament – first introduced in the country as Winning 5 and later rechristened Neymar Jr’s Five – brought some of the most agile and nimble-footed footballers of corporate world in Mumbai together.
After a number of rounds, team JP Morgan emerged victorious, beating Intelnet 2-0.
This five-a-side football game carries the main objective of scoring as many goals as fast as possible and outplaying the players of the opposing team. The team that concedes a goal has to send one player off the pitch, and each game continues until one team has lost all five players, or for 10 minutes, whichever comes first.

Winners – JP Morgan
Runner-up – Intelnet
Match score: – 2-0
