Hyderabad: Hyderabad-based football team Sreenidi Deccan Football Club continued their good run defeating Indian Arrows 2-1 in the Hero I-League in Kalyani on Thursday.
One goal either side of half time from Vanlalbiaa Chhangte and David Munoz sealed all three points for Sreenidi Deccan, who saw off a worthy challenge from the Indian Arrows. The Arrows registered a goal courtesy a delicate finish from Velanco Rodrigues right before half time. The victory helped the Sreenidi Deccan Football Club to begin its journey towards the top of the table.
Sreenidi Deccan entered into the contest with the wind in their sails, thanks to back-to-back wins in their two previous matches. Clear cut chances were at a premium all throughout this contest, as the teams battled hard to get the upper hand in midfield. Indian Arrows were dealt an early blow in the match when midfielder Harsh Patre had to come off due to an injury in the 23rd minute. Patre was ably replaced by Lalchhanhima Sailo, as the Indian Arrows remained focussed on the task at hand.
As the game reached the half hour mark, Sreenidi Deccan struck first to break the deadlock through right-sided midfielder Vanlalbiaa Chhangte. Defender Awal Mohammed played a long diagonal pass over the Indian Arrows backline, catching the Indian Arrows left full back momentarily out of position in the process. Chhangte expertly controlled the ball, and had ample time to set himself and pick his spot, as he made no mistake with his near post finish past the Arrows custodian Zahid Bukhari.
