JCT, Vasco match ends in draw

JCT Phagwara and Vasco Sports Club Goa shared points after their sixth round National Football League match ended in a goalless draw at Ludhiana on Tuesday.

Vasco played without star striker Brazilian Edso, who missed the match due to the red card he had got during his side's 0-2 loss against Mohan Bagan at Kolkata on December 18.

JCT, however, failed to take advantage of Edso's absence as they preferred to play defensive from the beginning.

After today's draw, JCT's points tally reached eight from six matches while Vasco are sitting on seven after an equal number of outings.
