Thimphu City FC clinch 2020 Bhutan Premier League title
Punakha: Thimphu City FC have emerged champions of the 2020 Bhutan Premier League after defeating Tensung FC for an unassailable lead at the top of the standings.

Thimphu's 6-2 win against Tensung FC took them to 37 points, nine ahead of second-placed Ugyen Academy, who only have two matches remaining.

Thimphu FC have dethroned Paro FC as the champions of Bhutan.


Thimphu went into their match against Tensung at the Lekeythang Football Field on Saturday only needing a draw to seal the title but they wanted to win in style and Tshering Dorji got them on their way with the opener in the 14th minute.

That opened the floodgates as Dorji added a second in the 31st with Kencho Tobgay (23rd, 42nd), Karma Shedrup (30th) and Yeshi Dorji (90+1) completing the win.

Tensung replied with goals from Dawa (74th) and Phuntsho Dorji (90+5).

Thimphu will close their season against Ugyen Academy, who are assured of second place, on Friday. Paro will finish the season in third place.
