134th Durand Cup: Bodoland FC Stun Punjab FC To Go On Top Of Group D
Bodoland FC Head Coach Vikash Panthi made one change to his starting line-up, bringing in Ghana International Abdul Samed Ango in place of Danswrang Basumatary in a 4-2-3-1 formation, while Punjab FC Head Coach Panagiotis Dilmperis made two changes to his starting line-up, bringing in experienced midfielder Princeton Rebello and defender Pramveer Singh in place of Bijoy Varghese and Leon Augustine in a 4-2-3-1 formation.
The first half unfolded in heavy rain, with Punjab FC immediately taking the initiative against Bodoland FC. Nikhil Prabhu led from the back, threading passes into midfield where Princeton Rebello pulled the strings, launching an early strike that whistled just over the crossbar. On the wings, Vishal and Suhail probed for openings, keeping Bodoland pinned in their own half during the opening exchanges.
