Gokulam Kerala held Mohammedan SC 1-1 in the I-League

Luka Majcen slotted in a late penalty to hand Gokulam Kerala a point against table-toppers Mohammedan SC in their I-League 2021-22 match on Friday at the Naihati stadium. Andelo Rudovic scored the opening goal for Mohammedan early on which was later cancelled out by Luka Majcen as both teams shared the spoils. The game began with Mohammedan SC under the pump as Gokulam tried to establish an early lead through Emil Benny, who tried to score a long ranger in the third minute of the game but the shot missed the goal by inches. Mohammedan were quick to respond as they strung an attack of their own in the sixth minute. Faisal Ali tried a shot from close range, but Gokulam’s goalkeeper Rakshit Dagar showed great reflexes to prevent a goal. Both sides tried to claim their authority over the midfield in the opening few minutes of the game. In the 14th minute, Rakshit Dagar produced two fine saves to keep the scores level as Mohammedan tried to up the tempo of the game. Quick passes and fast-paced football were on full display as both teams were trying to break the deadlock.
