On yet another rainy afternoon in Assam, Hyderabad FC registered their first win of the 2023-24 season when they beat Tribhuvan Army FC 3-0 in an entertaining Durand Cup clash at the Indira Gandhi Athletic Stadium on Tuesday.
Aaren D’Silva (16’, 24’ & 69’) scored a perfect hat-trick as HFC registered the first win of their Durand Cup campaign. This win saw HFC finish in second place in Group E, with four points from three games.
Hyderabad who set out with a similar team to the first two games of the competition, broke the deadlock after Aaren converted a superb cross from the left, put in by Ramhlunchhunga, who continued his fine form at the start of this season.
