A moment to cherish for Gokulam, State
The Hindu
First champion from Kerala at I-League
Gokulam Kerala on Saturday became the first team from the State to win football’s I-League. For a State that has produced many finest footballers in India and has been in love with the beautiful game for ages, it was the end of a long wait when Gokulam defeated TRAU (Imphal) 4-1 at the Kishore Bharati Krirangan ground in Kolkata. Founded in 2007, I-League is India’s first national football league (it was earlier called the National Football League). Till the advent of the more glamorous Indian Super League (ISL) in 2014, it was the country’s most prestigious football competition.More Related News
