Pressure on

Naga Corp kept up the pressure on leaders Phnom Penh Crown with a midweek Metfone C-League win this afternoon over a resurgent Kirivong Sok Sen Chey team. They won 2-1 after Kirivong took the lead through Song Dara a minute after the break. Julius Oiboh and Teab Vathanak scored for Naga just after the hour mark. Kirivong's Heng Koem Houng was given a 2nd yellow card and a red five minutes from the end for simulation in the penalty area. Naga are now 1 point behind Crown, having played 1 game more. The weekend's games see Crown taking on Chhlam Samuth in Saturday's later kick-off, with BBU likely to overcome Prek Pra in the 1st match. Preah Khan Reach face the Army in an interesting 2pm tussle on Sunday with Rithysen v National Police completing the fixtures.
