MDFA Elite Div football
A determined Central Bank of India produced another impressive combined performance and pulled off a hard-earned 1-0 win against a spirited Union Bank of India in an Elite Division encounter of the Rustomjee-MDFA League 2018-2019, and played at the Cooperage ground. This was Central Bank second successive victory as they had earlier defeated Mumbai Customs by a similar margin.
