The club registered their bigest ever win in the second tier...

Mohammedan Sporting Club came from a goal down to thrash Hindustan FC 6-1 in the Prelimanry Round Group-B fixture of the ongoing 2nd Division League at Barasat Stadium on Friday.

Vanlalbiaa Chhangte with his two goals (39th and 42nd minute), became the joint highest goal scorer in the 2nd Division League, while Reisangmei Vashum (32nd), Manvir Singh (49th), Phoolchand Hembram (75th) and Sheikh Faiaz (86th) scored a goal each for the black panthers after Hindustan FC took the early lead through Khushant Chauhan (8th).

The win moved the black panthers up to seond position on the table with 9 points ahead of Southern Samity’s clash against Neroca FC tomorrow.

The hosts began the game in attacking mode and created the first close chance in the 2nd minute. Vashum did well to cut in past a couple of defenders from the right but his effort narrowly missed the target.

While Mohammedan SC pressed high up, opponents Hindustan FC managed to take the lead against the run of the play at the other end. Khushant capitalised on a defensive error to beat Mohammedan SC custodian Sayon Roy from close range in the 8th minute.

Having conceded early on, Mohammedan SC began attacking with intensity with chances falling for Vanlalbiaa, Vashum and Alexandre Tabillon but the Hindustan FC defenders made sure it wasn’t going to be easy for the Mohammedan SC attackers.

After continuous pressure, Mohammedan SC got the breakthrough in the 32nd minute, when Manvir cut through couple of defenders from the right side and laid it for Vashum who made no mistake in slotting the ball into the net.

Seven minutes later the hosts doubled their advantage through Vanlalbiaa. Manvir played quick wall pass with Alexandre before releasing the ball for Vanlalbiaa whose powerful shot went straight into the net with Hindustan FC keeper Mithun Samonto watching helplessly.

Mohammedan SC virtually finished off the game three minutes before the break when Vanlalbiaa guided Alexandre's pass into to the back of the net.

Then Manvir added further insurance four minutes into the second session with a brillaint solo effort .

Meanwhile, Hindustan FC had a couple of good opportunities to reduce the margin but the visitors were unlucky and Mohammedan SC well at the back.

Mohammedan SC didn’t take their foot off the accelerator and continued to dominate proceedings. Phoolchand made it 5-1 for Mohammedan SC when he struck home from 25-yards out in the 75th minute.
