Durand Cup 2022 LIVE: Army Red FT v/s Neroca FC - Updates, Results, Scores, Blog
HALF TIME!
End of the first half and both sides are yet to open scoring. There have been odd chances for both Neroca and Army Red, but they have failed to capitalise.
Army Red 0-0 Neroca FC
38' - Wonderful from Bhabindra
Stunning play from the right flank by Neroca, but they fail to breach Bhabindra Malla. Two saves in a row to deny Neroca the goal from the Army Red custodian.
31' - Drop in intensity
After that sudden spurt of energy a few minutes ago, we are back to the normal. Both teams happy to sit back and play the ball amongst themselves whenever they have the possession.
22' - Poor, poor from Jain P
The Neroca FC defence is once again opened up from the centre, thanks to a beautiful through ball. The ball finds Army Red skipper Jain P, who for some reason fails to find the required power behind that shot. He managed to fool the Neroca goalkeeper, but the defender kicks it away.
That was a poorly taken shot from Jain P.
21' - Good stuff from Thomyo
A beautiful run in at the right flank from Neroca's Thomyo and an even better cross inside the circle, but his striker fails to reach it. Good encouraging signs now for Neroca FC.
19' - Tomdomba to Neroca's rescue
A massive defensive lapse from Neroca FC and Army Red steals the ball with ease. It looks as if they have a great opportunity to score, but the Neroca skipper Tomdomba denies with a sliding block. That was wonderful from the defender.
16' - Army Red messes up a chance
A good play created from the centre by Army Red, but their strikers are surrounded. They get a rebound attempt as well, but the shot was very poor.
6' - Good stuff from Army Red defence
A freekick for Neroca from almost the corner. It is well taken, the header and rebound from the men inside the cricle is decent as well, but the Red Army defence is compact. Threat averted.
1' - Good start for Neroca FC
A decent start for Neroca FC as they maintain the possession.
All Set!
We are all set to begin the first contest of the day. Both teams are out in the middle.
