Aizawl beat Gokulam 2-0 to grab full away points

By The Assam Tribune

KOZHIKODE, Dec 31: Reigning champions Aizawl FC logged home full points beating debutants Gokulam Kerala 2-0 in an away encounter of I-League, here today.

Daniel Addo�s own goal (45th) and Andrei Ionescu (52nd minute) sealed it for Aizawl. Aizawl with 10 points are placed fifth in the league table.

On the other hand, Bino George�s boys are still placed ninth with only 4 points from 6 matches. Gokulam started without their star striker Kamo Bayi and opted to hold their own-half rather than attacking the Reds from the kick-off.

On the other hand, Aizawl FC�s foreign recruits Kobayashi and Ionescu continued to press hard but the hosts managed to defend the flurry of attacks until the last minute of the first-half.

Lalram Hmunmawia put in a low cross for Kobayashi from the left-flank but eventually Daniel Addo, the Ghanaian defender of Gokulam poked it into the net in the 45th minute much to the dismay of the home team. � PTI
