Sayak Banerjee | 10 Nov 2023

Mohammedan Sporting clinched a hard-fought 2-1 victory against Delhi FC in their first away match of the I-League season. Goals from David and Remsanga secured the win for the black-and-white brigade, while Bali Gagandeep managed to pull one back for the home side.

The match saw high drama, especially in the dying moments of the first half when two foreign players—Kashimov from Mohammedan and Alexis from Delhi FC—were shown straight red cards after a heated altercation. Their dismissals left both teams playing with ten men for the remainder of the game.
Despite the numerical disadvantage, Mohammedan Sporting held their nerve in the second half, displaying resilience and tactical discipline to maintain their slender lead. The win gives Mohammedan crucial points and a morale boost, but the suspension of Kashimov for the next match will be a significant setback for the team.

This victory highlights Mohammedan’s growing momentum in the league as they push to solidify their position in the standings. Fans will be hoping the team can overcome their upcoming challenges and continue their impressive form on the road.
