RFC get better of St Stephen’s club

Chandigarh, February 22

Rajeshwar Football Club (RFC) stunned St Stephen’s Football Club by a solitary goal during the ongoing U-20 Chandigarh State Men’s Football League at the Sector 46 sports complex.

In the second match, Punjab Engineering College (PEC) Football Club beat Sandhu FC 3-1. Virender scored two goals and Amitoj scored one for PEC, whereas Krish netted a consoling goal for Sandhu FC.
