Tollygunge scrape
past F C Kochin

Kolkata's Tollygunge Aggragami ended their losing streak when they scraped past Kerala's F C Kochin by a solitary second half goal in a National Football League match in Kolkata on Friday.

The diminutive Sashti Duley converted a penalty to seal the fate of the Kerala outfit in a lacklustre encounter.

The victory, in the ninth round of matches, was only the second for the Kolkata side while F C Kochin suffered their fourth defeat.

The home team, playing their first match under new coach Aloke Mukherjee -- who replaced Amal Dutta, tried to play an attacking game but the moves lacked sting as the Keralites managed to ward off the attacks.

The lone goal was the result of a blunder by F C Kochin defender Suresh, who brought down Tollygunge striker Asim Biswas inside the box. Referee Mrinal Kanti Roy of Assam had no hesitation in awarding a penalty.
