Champions New Radiant keep their title hope alive by beating Victory Sports Club 3-1 in the dhi classico clash this evening.

Boabulhi Imma (Imran Nasheed) blasted in the first goal of the game from a cross from Ruiz Paz Angel Luiz in the 45th minute of the first half. Victory resistance is broken by Imma. 

Sentey (Ali Fasir) scored New Radiant's second goal early on. Kipson Etuheire added to Victory's agony in the 53rd minute. Couple of minutes later Ahmed Rasheed (Yaya Ammadey) got one back for Victory.

The win gives the fourth placed New Radiant 26 points, two behind Eagles, four behind Maziya and only six points from the League leaders TC sports. TC Sports has a game in hand over the other teams in the top four though. TC will play against Foakaidhoo FC later tonight.
