Airmen fight all the way to a draw

Sri Lanka Air Force managed to stay on top for another period when they held Renown SC to a one all draw at the City Football Complex in a Dialog Champions League encounter yesterday.

Airmen took control of the game in the first session and went for Lemons with a one nil lead. Renown fought a big battle during this period for almost 32 minutes. It was S. Sanjeev who found the net first to put the Airmen in to the lead. The balance 13 minutes was a grim battle for Renown players as they were put under pressure by the Air Force front runners. But both sides failed to add anything to the scoreboard.

After the turn around Renown came up with a brilliant performance to find the equalizer just 65 minutes into the game. Soon after this equalizer the Airmen had to come out with everything they had in store to control the strikers from Renown camp. But it was fruitless as Renown got ahead when Zain scored the most wanted goal for Renown 2-1.

Airmen once again came out with a superlative attack and with 12 minutes away from the final whistle Sampath Perera's header found the net and the equalizer for Airmen.

There was no scoring after this and the game ended in a draw 2-2.
