Srinagar- Real Kashmir FC is all set to take on Gokulam Kerala FC on Friday at TRC Stadium in an I-League 2024-25 match. The game will kick off at 2:00 PM.
Both teams are coming off wins in their season openers. The Snow Leopards comfortably beat Rajasthan United FC 2-0, while Gokulam Kerala was made to toil in their dramatic come-from-behind 3-2 win over Sreenidi Deccan FC.
Speaking at the pregame press conference on Thursday, Real Kashmir coach Ishfaq Ahmad said Gokulam will be a tough opponent and hoped his team will play “excellent football and deliver a positive result.”
