Pune FC ‘B’ registered their second consecutive win with a 5-0 victory over Parshuramians SC in a PDFA Super Division League Round-12 encounter at the DSK Football Field in Loni on Thursday.
Goals from Buanthanglun Samte (5th), Aniket Jadhav (35th), Lalremruata (56th & 69th minute), and Pratik Badame (86th) handed Pune FC a well-deserved win.
The win was also Pune FC B’s eighth of the campaign and took their tally to 28 points from 12 games as they moved into the second place in the standings behind leaders Deccan Rovers (28 pts) on goal difference.
Playing their second game in as many days, Pune FC dominated proceedings from the very beginning and took the lead in the 5th minute. Winger Buanthanglun ran free up on the left and his dangerous cross in from the flank flummoxed both the defender and goalkeeper to deflect into the goal at the near-post.
Striker Aniket Jadhav then doubled the advantage in the 35th minute with a good finish. After being played through by playmaker Omega V., Aniket beat a defender before calmly slotting home to give Pune FC a 2-0 lead going into the breather.
Ten minutes after restart, Pune FC got their third when Lalremruata converted from close at the far post on a ball in from the left. The youngster completed his brace in the 69th minute with another good finish from inside the crowded box.
Into the final five minutes, debutant Pratik too got on the scoresheet. The winger dribbled in from the right and scored with an accurate left-footer past the keeper to seal Pune FC’s 5-0 win.
