SRI BHAINI SAHIB (Punjab):Delhi FC and TRAU FC played out a 1-1 draw at the Namdhari Stadium on Monday as the town of Sri Bhaini Sahib in Punjab experienced I-League football for the first time. It was TRAU who took the lead against the run of play in the first half through Liton Shil, but Delhi clawed back early in the second half, through veteran forward Balwant Singh. In the first half of contradictions, the home side Delhi FC, who are playing from Sri Bhaini Sahib this season, created most of the chances in the first 45 minutes, but it was TRAU FC, who took the lead.

Delhi could have taken the lead for the first time, around the hour mark, when Bhupender Singh sent a long one into the box, as Balwant slid in to send the ball goalwards, but it struck TRAU keeper Mithun Samanta’s leg, before trickling agonisingly close to the goal line, and out of play. (IANS)
