Chanmari FC Head Coach Victor: Lalruatsanga’s dramatic stoppage-time strike proved decisive as Chanmari FC edged past Sreenidi Deccan FC 2-1 to register a victory in Indian Football League (IFL) 2025-26 at the Rajiv Gandhi Stadium in Aizawl on Saturday.

The result handed the newly-promoted Chanmari FC their first win of the season to climb provisionally to second in the points table with four points, while Sreenidi Deccan are third in the table with three.

Chanmari FC Head Coach Victor Lalbiakmawia made a single alteration to his starting line-up, bringing in Brazilian forward Joao Vitor De Paula Morais (Jota) to lead the attack ahead of Aron Vanlalrinchhana. Sreenidi Deccan head coach Carlos Manuel Vaz Pinto also made one forced change to his starting eleven, handing Aryan Niraj Lamba the start in goal in place of the injured Bhaskar Roy.
