Salgaocar win to take top slot

Salgaocar moved back to the top of the I-League table with a clinical 2-0 victory against United SC at the Kalyani stadium on Sunday.

After Augustin Fernandes had given the lead for the Goan side in the 3rd minute, Milagres Gonsalves made sure of the points in the 86th minute.

 The win puts them at 13 points from six games – level on points with both Pune, who beat Rangdajied United 1-0, and Bengaluru FC, but are leading on account of a superior goal difference. Meanwhile, Pune FC continued their unbeaten run in the I-League as they registered a 1-0 win over Rangdajied United FC at Shree Shiv Chhatrapati Sports Complex, Mhalunge-Balewadi on Sunday.

While BFC and Salgaocar have both played six games, Pune have played a game less.
Defender Calum Angus’ (30th minute) calm finish at the half-hour mark handed Pune FC a third consecutive win at home. The hosts took the lead at the half-hour mark after a quick corner on the right from winger Nikhil Kadam to Ivorian Douhou led the latter to lay-off for Calum outside the box in the center and his powerful low drive beat Rangdajied ‘keeper Shambhu Mistry for his second goal in as many matches.
