FATORDA (GOA): (Nov 1) Dempo Sports Club began their Indian Football League (IFL) campaign with a dramatic 1-0 victory over FC Bengaluru United here on Sunday.

Ghanaian defender Uzziel Yaw Asomaning Budu struck in the eighth minute of the second-half stoppage time to break the deadlock and hand the hosts all three points.

Billed as a clash between a youthful FC Bengaluru United outfit and the seasoned campaigners of Dempo, the contest looked destined to end in a goalless stalemate as the visitors defended resolutely for large periods of the match.
