Tusal on brink of relegation after Jhapa defeat, Madhyapur secured

Shree Tusal Youth Club are staring at relegation to the C Division following a 2-0 defeat to Jhapa Football Club in the Martyr's Memorial B Division League.

Pradeep Budathoki was the hero for Jhapa, scoring both goals—first in the 59th minute and again in the seventh minute of stoppage time in the match at the Dasharath Stadium. The loss leaves Tusal’s fate hanging in the balance; they will be relegated if RCT earn at least a draw against Birgunj United in their upcoming match.

In the day’s other fixture, Madhyapur Youth Association confirmed their B Division status with a narrow 1-0 win over Bansbari Club. Sahil KC netted the only goal of the match in the 65th minute, securing Madhyapur’s survival in the league.
