That is 5th succescive time Dempo won the I-League title in the coaching of Armando Coalso, its an alltime record in Indian football history. That match was a do-or-die battle for the red & gold brigade of Kolkata while the homeside just needed a draw to secure the championshi
p. The visitors put their entire effort for keeping their hope alive in the championship battle, the visitors started with three strikers form the beginning of the game, they should have gotten a decent margin in the first half against the hosts, Edmilson missed an 1:1 opportunity against the Dempo goalkeeper only while Tolgay Ozbey was fouled inside the box by Rowilson Rodrigues, referee Bishnu Charan denied the visitors from a clear penalty. In second half visitors also got few chances but due to bold goalkeeping of Dempo goalkeeper Subhashish Roychowdhury they failed to convert, meanwhile Dempo also got few chances but p
osts denied them from scoring.
It has to be told that entire credit goes to Dempo coach Armando Colaso, he works silently & always stay away from limelight. He has a lot of contribution for holding the same team since last five to seven years. Two veterans Mahesh Gawli & Samir Nayek also have a lots of credits for such kind of performances of Dempo while in forwardline star player Ranti Martins & Coco Sakibo did their job truely well throughout the entire season.
Its all about celebration & partytime for Dempo while they have one match left in this year I-League competition, they will take on the Kolkata giant Prayag United on 5th May at Salt Lake Stadium, Kolkata.
