Artificial turf is required. Its really ironic that Bombay Cooperage Ground has turf but no stands and support for football-thus that is wasted. FIFA should have given money to Nagaland instead where people love their football unlike Bombay.<br>

Basically is the same ground, with a little difference in small stones <br><br>Dry conditions is dusty and Rainy conditions is muddy. The artificial turf seems to be coming soon but until work starts we keep hearing about it. And FIFA probably wont make a turf in Nagaland.. but the government needs to take the initiative. After all, if we dont do it ourselves, we cant depend on anyone. <br><br>And of course, weirdly, the proposed astro turf is going to be laid in Peren and not Kohima (Indira GS - not the local ground) and Dimapur where there are already stadiums.<br><br>http://www.nagalandpost.com/ChannelNews/Sports/Sportsnews.aspx?news=TkVXUzEwMDA0NTExOQ==-w/iawMo7yWQ=<br>

Nagaland Premier League’s first midweek matches takes place on
Wednesday at all the three venues- Dimapur, Kohima and Mokokchung. The
first match was ca<span class="text_exposed_show">ncelled at Mokokchung
between Sangpang FC and United Redskins due to technical issues but
Wednesday’s fixture will take place at the Imkongmeren Sports Complex.
Matchday 1 saw a flurry of goals scored, 17 goals in 4 matches, and
round two of the Nagaland Premier League promises another exciting day
of football. <br> <br> DIMAPUR<br> Dimapur United Vs Kohima Komets<br> Kick-off : 10:00 am Venue: DDSC Stadium<br>
Both teams come into the match with plenty of confidence after
convincing wins in the opening round at the weekend in Kohima. Dimapur
United beat Doyang FC 3-2 while Kohima Komets had a comfortable 3-0 win
against Zonipang SA. This one will be a hard fought game between two
very strong sides, both technically and physically adept at their game.
DU, with a roaring home crowd support will look to make life difficult
for the visiting side and put in another good performance against a
formidable Kohima Komets. KK look a very different side from last season
having bought quality players during the off season and are certainly
one of the title contenders this season along with their opponents DU.<br> <br> Barak FC Vs United Redskins<br> Kick-off: 12 pm Venue: DDSC Stadium<br>
Defending champions Barak FC take on United Redskins FC in the second
match in Dimapur. BFC won their opening match 4-2 against Dynamic FC
after an impressive display in the second half on Saturday. Despite
conceding two late goals they were in control of the match and they will
be keen to carry the winning momentum against URFC. The first game for
United Redskins at Mokokchung was cancelled and this will be their debut
match in the Nagaland Premier League. They still remain an unknown
package and will look to spring a surprise or two against the current
Champions.<br> <br> Dimapur<br> Kick-off: 2pm Venue: DDSC Stadium<br> Dynamic FC Vs Zonipang SA<br>
After a difficult opening Gameweek against two very strong opponents,
the two teams go into the match hoping for a better result on Wednesday.
Dynamic FC played well towards the end against Barak FC scoring two
late goals and will take that as a positive going into the match.
Zonipang SA failed to score against Kohima Komets and conceded three in
their last outing and they will be eager to produce a better display
against DFC. With both teams looking for their first points of the
season this will be a hard fought, competitive game.<br> <br> Kohima<br> Doyang FC Vs FC Naga Tornadoes<br> Kick-off: 12 pm Venue: IG Stadium<br>
The two teams come into this game after disappointing losses last week,
Doyang FC losing out to Dimapur United 3-2, and surprisingly FC Naga
Tornadoes going down 2-1 against Veda FC. The Blue Assasins will be
confident after a good performance against title contenders DU scoring
two goals against a quality defensive unit. FC Naga Tornadoes, despite
losing key players to rival clubs, still remain a force to reckon with. <br> <br> Mokokchung<br> Sangpang FC Vs Veda FC<br> Kick-off: 2 pm Venue: Imkongmeren Sports Complex<br>
Sangpang FC, after their first match being postponed, are ready to host
newcomers Veda FC in Mokokchung. Veda FC started off with a morale
boosting 2-1 win against a strong FC Naga Tornadoes team in Kohima last
week. Sangpang FC has the advantage of the home crowd, who are set to be
vociferous after being denied their first home game in the opening
round. Veda FC might be a surprise package for this year, will come
fully prepared to what can be a very difficult away trip to Mokokchung.<br> <br> By NPL Pundits.<br><br>https://www.facebook.com/npl.punditz/posts/368780573253269<br></span></span>;
