Delhi u20

Ramakrishna Mission Ashrama Ground Narainpur: From two goals down to lifting the trophy for the second consecutive time, Delhi U20 scripted a sensational comeback to defeat Mizoram U20 4-2 after extra time in the final of the Swami Vivekananda Men’s U-20 National Football Championship at the Ramakrishna Mission Ashrama Ground on Tuesday.

Super-sub Laishram Rahul Meitei (90+1’, 108’) emerged as the hero, scoring twice, including the go-ahead goal in extra time, as Delhi fought back with grit, heart, and relentless determination in a match that saw as many as 10 expulsions as tempers flared in the extra half-hour’s play. Mizoram ended the match with eight players, while Delhi were down to nine.

Arya Kashyap (48’) and Prashan Jajo (110’) scored the other two goals for Delhi. Mesak C Lalrinngheta (39’) and PC Pazawna (45+2’) had netted the two goals for Mizoram.
