IFL 2025-26: Aizawl, Chanmari Lock Horns In A Highly Anticipated Derby
Indian Football League: Local rivals Aizawl FC and Chanmari FC will lock horns in a highly anticipated Aizawl derby in the Indian Football League (IFL) 2025-26 at the Rajiv Gandhi Stadium in Aizawl on Tuesday.
Aizawl FC will be eager to bounce back from a 0-2 defeat against high-flying Diamond Harbour FC. Under head coach R. Lalruatfela, the People's Club defended resolutely in the first half of their previous outing. However, they were eventually undone by a second-half defensive lapse that led to the opening goal.
Reflecting on this setback, Lalruatfela admitted, "In that game, what I reflect on is the lack of experience of my defender. Not only because of the mistakes of the players, but also because of the calls I made. So those kinds of mistakes cannot happen, especially at this top level."
