Nazeeh's first game in charge for victory ends in denting new Radiant't Premier League hopes.

playing with a 5 man defense, Victory held on against a New Radiant side without their star man Ali Fasir (Sentey), who was on the bench. New Radiant dominated play throughout the first half unable to break the Victory defense line.

New Radiant attacked on fiercely in the second half, however Victory got the lead against the run of play with a goal from Hussain Nihaan(Niheart). Goalkeeper Faisal punched the ball straight to Niheart from a corner. Niheart controlled the ball and placed it low to make it 1-0 for victory in the 60th minute.

New Radiant brought on Sentey to push for an equalizer which came in the 75th minute. Sobah Mohamed's substitute gamble worked. A very questionable free kick though. Sentey scores right to the corner of the net to beat Mohamed Imran. 1-1. New Radiant pushed till the full time. Brave Victory denies New Radiant again. Earlier in the season Dhi Classico brought a surprise. Yet again Victory announces their intentions against the blues.

The draw leaves TC at the top with four point lead over New Radiant and Eagles. Victory still remains in the 8th place.

Nazeeh talking to the media raised questions about the referee who awarded a very questionable free kick to New Radiant that lead to their equalizer. "I did not come here for a small price, For Victory I will work for free" Nazeeh said talking to the media, He also criticized the media for false information about Victory claiming that it is not as bad as media reported.

"We didn't give hundred percent" Sobah added that not names but effort is what it takes to win games. He also said that if the players do not attend regular practices he or any other coach cannot do more. Sobah called on the supporters to stick with the club and that there are many games yet and that he is hopeful for a good run in still.
