Delhi defends men’s National U20 football title

Chhattisgarh, May 27, 2025.

Delhi came back from a two-goal deficit to beat Mizoram 4-2 in extra time in the summit clash and defend the Men’s U-20 National Football Championship title here on Tuesday.

Super-sub Laishram Rahul Meitei (90+1st, 108th) emerged the hero, scoring twice, including one in extra time, as Delhi made a remarkable fightback in an ill-tempered final match that saw as many as 10 expulsions.

Mizoram ended the match with eight players, while Delhi were down to nine.
