Srinagar- Kashmir University Football Team has shined in the North Zone Inter-University Football Tournament, being played at GNA University in Phagwara, Punjab.
The KU team, coached by AFC Pro Licence coach Sajid Yousuf Dar, defeated DAV Jalandhar 3-0 on Monday to reach the pre-quarterfinals stage. Mubashir scored the opener in 20th minute, before Nayeem doubled the tally in 42nd minute. Huzaifa sealed the game in the 60th minute to take Kashmir University deep into the tournament.

“The leadership and support from Coach Sajid Yousuf Dar and Prof. Tariq Ahmad Chisti have been instrumental in the team’s success,” the FA said.
