Gokulam Kerala FC: Gokulam Kerala FC remained in the hunt for the 2024-25 I-League title as they sealed a dramatic 3-1 victory over nine-man Namdhari FC at the Namdhari Stadium on Monday.

Thabiso Brown (57’), Adama Niane (81’), and Ignacio Abeledo (90+2’) were the scorers for the visitors, while Manvir Singh (63’) netted Namdhari’s only goal, with all the strikes erupting in a fiercely contested second half.

Gokulam Kerala hold the fourth place in the I-League standings with 31 points from 19 matches and are just three points behind league leaders Churchill Brothers, who have a game in hand. Gokulam Kerala’s resolve will surely be tested in their remaining three fixtures as they chase the championship. The Malabarians have now won three on the trot away from home.
