Shillong, March 03: North East Zone Group table leaders Shillong Lajong FC will host bottom placed Green Valley FC in the ongoing Under 19 I-League North East Zone Qualifiers at the JN Stadium Shillong on Tuesday at 1:00PM.
The Junior Reds are coming into this match after their 3-2 win last week over Rangdajied United and remain at the top of the table with 9 points from three matches.
Green Valley FC, on the other hand, lost against Royal Wahingdoh in Guwahati last week and has managed only one point from three games, courtesy a draw against Rangdajied United in the second round.
Junior Reds Striker, Shaiborlang, who did not play the last game, is likely to miss tomorrow’s match as well due to injury. Meanwhile, Captain Redeem Tlang who scored in the last two matches for his team, is in top form and will look to add to his tally and help secure a victory for his team.
Coach Alison Khasyntiew who is hoping his boys will deliver a much better performance tomorrow said, “We have remained unbeaten so far and we wish that the boys remain consistent and continue to have the winning mentality”.
“Green Valley is a good team and they will surely put up a fight against Lajong. Therefore we will not take the opponents lightly and we will focus to work hard as a team to win all the remaining matches”.(SP News)
