Srinagar : Real Kashmir hustled their way to a 1-0 victory over TRAU FC in their second home game of the I-League 2023-24 season at the TRC Turf Stadium on November 4, 2023. Jeremy’s goal helped them secure 2nd win in the I-League 2023-24.

In the 1st half , with lesser possession, RKFC ended up with more shots on goal.

Jeremy Laldinpuia however, gave Kashmir the much wanted lead in the 45th minute. It started with a fairly innocuous run by Jeremy Laldinpuia on the left right on the edge of halftime. The winger had done this a few times through the half, and as he drove towards the byline, TRAU tracked back in numbers.

Jeremy cut in though this time, dropping a pair of defenders in his wake, before playing a delightful one-two with Gnohere Krizo. Krizo laid the return perfectly for him to curl a first-time effort into the bottom right.

TRAU came out with more intent in the second period, but their possession and attacking intent was only aided by RKFC’s staunch refusal to concentrate solely on protecting their own lead.Despite a late siege by TRAU on the RKFC goal, one that saw Thawan Marcus Goncalves and William Ribeiro Dos Reis miss two chances — the former from a looped header inside the box and the latter guilty of slashing high from 10 yards when hitting the target may have been easier.

RKFC held on to take three points and remain perfect in the league.
