Rakhine United bags crucial win in MNL
RAKHINE
United defeated Thitsar Arman 3-1 in the 19th fixture of the
2024-2025 Myanmar National League season at Thuwunna Youth Training Centre in
Yangon yesterday.
Rakhine
United struggling in the relegation zone claimed the win with a hat-trick from
striker M’Baga. Despite the victory, Rakhine United remains in the relegation
battle and needs to push for more points in their final three matches. Thitsar
Arman, which took the lead early, conceded three goals and lost the match.
Both
teams featured most of their key players. However, Rakhine United faced
challenges due to injuries and suspensions. The first half ended without a
goal, but Aung Htun Htun put Thitsar Arman ahead early in the second half.
M’Baga equalized for Rakhine United in the 64th minute and scored
two more goals in the 82nd and 88th
minutes. M’Baga was named the best
player of the match.
After
the match, Thitsar Arman has 17 points from 19 games, while Rakhine United has
10 points from 19 games. The Fixture 19 continues today with Maha United facing
Thitsar Arman. — Ko Nyi Lay/KZL
