IAF fall to late goal
Nothing seems to be going right for defending champions Indian Air Force this time. In their last Delhi Soccer Association super league match today, the airmen—already out of semi-final qualification possibility —went down to a 80th-minute goal against Trackon Garhwal Heroes.

The fast-paced match, tilted slightly towards Heroes, had seemed to be headed towards a draw, but Pramod Rawat’s late strike changed things. Heroes ended their campaign with six points, but have laso failed to qualify.

The first semi-final will be played between Indian National and Hind-Ahbab on January 17, while the other will be played the next day between New Delhi Heroes and Tarun Sangha.
