Monirul guides India to victory, remembers RG Kar victim

India were reduced to nine men in the 69th minute.

Monirul Molla guided India to a lone-goal victory against Bhutan in the team’s opening match of the Under-20 SAFF Championship Group-B on Monday at Kathmandu.

The impact of the rape and murder case at RG Kar Hospital has also reached the far from Kolkata to Kathmandu as Manirul remembered the victim by not celebrating his goal as his jersey showed ‘Justice for …..’. 

Despite being reduced to nine men in the 69th minute India bounced back and the breakthrough came from a Kelvin corner in the 37th minute. Monirul Molla rose highest to meet his looping delivery and accurately headed it into the bottom corner for the winner.
