Sreenidi, who dropped points against Mohammedan Sporting and Aizawl FC in their last two matches, will now take on Real Kashmir on their home turf at the Deccan Arena, Hyderabad, on Sunday, March 5, 2023.
In an intense encounter, both the teams excelled in their defensive performances but also missed chances that came their way. Both goals came in the first half - while Anil Rama Goalkar put Churchill ahead in the 19th minute, R Lalthanmawia equalised for the home team four minutes later.
Following a major dent in their title aspirations after the unexpected defeat against Mohammedan Sporting in Kolkata, Sreenidi Deccan has now travelled to Aizawl to face Aizawl FC in the I-League 2022-23 match at the Rajiv Gandhi Stadium on Tuesday, February 28, 2023.
The win took Real Kashmir to 26 points from 18 matches but they remained in sixth due to their inferior head-to-head record with Churchill Brothers. Aizawl is now seventh with 23 points from 18 games
Real Kashmir, who endured a seven-game winless run on the road, have found their joy back after returning home to Srinagar. They have scored nine goals and collected seven points in their last three games, and came from behind to beat Mohammedan Sporting 3-2 on Saturday.
Aizawl kept on pushing in the final quarter but could not find a way past a firm TRAU defence and a determined Jedidi Haokip in goal. With the defeat, Aizawl remains in the sixth spot with 23 points in 17 games
A win will take the Red Pythons to 29 points, overtaking Churchill Brothers and Gokulam Kerala in the process. On the other hand, if Aizawl win, they will level on points with TRAU and Churchill Brothers. That would keep the Reds in a good position for the last four matches as well
Chencho Gyeltshen's solo run early in the second half which resulted in the only goal of the match, was enough for RoundGlass Punjab to hand Aizawl FC their second defeat at home. A win for the Warriors also means they now have 37 points, the same as leaders Sreenidhi Deccan, who are current
This victory takes Caetano Pinho's men up to fourth on the table with 20 points from 14 matches, while Mohammedan Sporting are ninth with 16 points from 14
