MS faced Century Rayon in the second fixture of the Elite Division season and having played them before in the Super Division last year, they knew it was not an easy encounter. However, MS looked geared up to snatch victory after being trounced 8-1 by Air India in the first game.

The intensity was tremendous from the start as MS and Rayon both exchanged blows in the first half. The defensive herds of both teams had a tough time taking on the attacking department. Century Rayon almost scored in the first fifteen minutes of the game due to a defensive scramble but saw the effort go off the post. It was a goalless first half and the next 45 minutes were vital.

The second half was even more intense and interesting as both teams tried to break the deadlock. The moment of glory came for Century Rayon when they scored the first goal in the 75th minute through a clinical finish by their striker. Ten minutes later, MS succumbed to another goal which deflected off MS defender Rakesh P while Rayon bagged all three points from the game.

MS now have two losses in two games and they are on the hunt for their first Elite Division victory.
