Mizoram Premier League: Chhinga Veng FC upset Chanmari West FC!

MPL - Chhinga Veng FC - Chanmari West FCChhinga Veng FC, whose performances in the Independence Day Cup and MFA Super Cup tournaments have been well below expectations, began their opening Mizoram Premier League match brightly and dominated proceedings early on against a well-drilled Chanmari West FC side at the Lammual Stadium in Aizawl yesterday.

Both sides playing off on the counter-attack resulted in an end-to-end action although neither of them could come up with a clear cut chance to score.

Chhinga Veng FC eventually took the lead through striker Lalkhawpuimawia on the 29th minute. Chanmari West FC trying to get back into the game, struggled on to find space in their final third.

The second half saw much of the same action with Chhinga Veng FC getting tighter at the back and looking to attack on the break. They duly got their reward on the 68th minute as Lalkhawpuimawia doubled their lead and grabbed a brace for himself.

Desperate to find an answer to both goals Chanmari West FC dug deep but could not break down the organised backline of Chhinga Veng FC and went down 0-2 in their MPL-5 opener.
