Sreenidi Deccan FC’s stunning 3-1 victory over Gokulam Kerala on Tuesday threw a spanner in the defending champions’ works to reclaim their Hero I-League crown as Mohammedan SC kept their end of the bargain with a 2-0 win over Rajasthan United, in Kolkata, earlier on Wednesday.

Former Indian skipper Bhaichung Bhutia feels that strikers need to develop sixth to become successful in their trade. The footballer was once the highest goal scorer for the Indian national football team, which was later surpassed by current Indian skipper Sunil Chhetri a few years ago.

Bhaichung Bhutia feels that closed-door football could very well become the new normal if the virus-induced regulations continue even the lockdown is lifted. While the Indian Super League final was played behind closed doors, the I-League was called-off prematurely due to the Covid-19 outbreak.

Spanish midfielder Joseba Beitia has admitted that he wants to play for Mohun Bagan once again after guiding the Kolkata club to an I-League title this season. With the club merging with Indian Super League outfits ATK, chances are unlikely that he will play for the new side next season.
