Zinc Football Academy: Zinc Football Academy (ZFA) played out a thrilling 2–2 draw with Mumbay FC in their second Group B fixture of the I-League 3, with a dramatic late equaliser capping off an intense contest at the SAI Turf Ground in Imphal.
It was a game that tested character, and ZFA responded strongly after Mumbay FC used their experience and physicality to dictate the early tempo. Their direct approach, focused on long balls and winning second balls, posed immediate challenges for ZFA in the opening exchanges. Recognising the threat, ZFA made a tactical adjustment around the 15-minute mark, shifting from a 4-1-4-1 to a 4-4-2 system.
The change aimed to press higher and disrupt Mumbay FC's centre-backs in build-up, and it worked.
