135th Durand Cup: Langsning FC Debut With Five-goal Win Over Mumbay FC
After being frustrated in a goalless first half, Langsning came to life after the interval, dismantling the Mumbay defence with five unanswered goals. Syed Ahmed led the charge with a brilliant brace, while Kyrmenskhem Mukhim, Dibormi Chanlang Ki O Kassar and substitute Samuel Phawa also found the scoresheet to complete an emphatic victory and hand Langsning FC a dream start to their maiden Durand Cup campaign in front of their home supporters.
Both teams lined up in identical 4-3-3 formations for the Group E encounter. Langsning FC opted for an attacking setup led by Kyrmenskhem Mukhim, Syed Ahmed and Wadajied Kynsai Ryngkhlem, with Rajat Paul Lyngdoh starting in goal. Mumbay FC, meanwhile, relied on Afzar Noorani and Rohit Mirza to spearhead their attack, while Jebishan L took his place between the posts.
