Good afternoon and welcome to everyone joining us this Saturday. Group C action continues in Durand Cup with debutants 1 Ladakh FC facing Tribhuvan Army Club. Stay with us for the build-up and live updates from the Indian football game.

Hosts Jamshedpur FC are on top of group C with back-to-back wins. Tribhuvan Army Club and Indian Army FT are the teams they have beaten, but both have two more games to play. 1 Ladakh FC start their campaign today.
The match gets underway at the JRD Tata Sports Complex. Tribhuvan Army Club attacking from left to right and Ladakh from right to left. TAFC are the far more seasoned side and expected to prevail over the debutants, but anything can happen in football and the two-year-young club from J&K will be eager to make a mark.
It's been all Tribhuvan Army so far in terms of possession and corners. One Ladakh still finding their feet, though it's early days in the game.
1 Ladakh FC go ahead against the run of play! Siju heads home from a pinpoint in-swinging cross off a corner kick in the 23rd minute. It is the maiden goal at the Durand Cup for the debutants, who were just established two years back as a club, remember.
The match began sluggishly but gathered steam in the last 20 minutes. Tribhuvan Army have equalised via Niranjan Dhami's classy goal in the 40th minute. He taps in the through ball and 1 Ladakh's lead is neutralised. The second half promises to be a cracker.
The second half gets underway in jamshedpur. Tribhuvan Army now attacking from right to left and 1 Ladakh FC from left to right. The match has really opened up with the two goals and both teams will believe they have a good chance of finding the winner.
The attempts growing fervent as time passes by. The heat also seems to be getting to some players, with a couple of them cramping up and needing help mid-game. As if on cue, the second drinks break arrives.
Tribhuvan Army squander a glorious opportunity to go ahead. Gillespye Jung Karki creates a really strong opening at the goalmouth, but the finishing is lacking and the scoreline stays at 1-1. We are now into the last 10 minutes, plus stoppage time.
The scoreline stays at 1-1 after five minutes of added time, and the Himalayan Derby thus ends in a stalemate. Ladakh get a draw on debut, while Tribhuvan Army will now find it hard to advance from Group C, having lost their opener to NorthEast United.
