Shillong Lajong FC: Shillong Lajong FC earned a hard-fought 2-1 win against 10-man TRAU FC in the 2023-24 I-League on Saturday. Playing a majority of the game a man down, TRAU’s loss condemns them further, deeper into the points table; they now stand last in the 13-team league with just one point from six matches.

With nine points from five matches, Shillong Lajong are now placed fifth in the league table.

In a half completely dominated by the hosts, it was TRAU who took the lead, Robinson Singh’s header the first in five games the club had scored in the league this season. The goal came against the run of play but was created out of some brilliant movement and speed of passing by the TRAU midfield. When the ball ended up with Deepak Singh on the right byline, the winger cut one way and another before dropping a pin point cross into the six-yard area for Robinson to slam in.
