Kathmandu, Jan. 21 -- Two of three departmental football clubs-Nepal Police FC and Tribhuvan Army FC-were in action at the National League on Tuesday. Both of them were restricted to a draw, that too by young clubs, in their respective matches.

Nepal Police and Tribhuvan Army have a richer legacy compared to the Armed Police Force (APF) FC. The two clubs have been active in Nepali football for over seven decades, while APF's football club came into existence only two decades ago.

Nepal Police are also four-time A-Division champions, while Tribhuvan Army have finished as the runner-up four times. And to trouble such a team is always a moment of pride for an emerging club. And that was exactly what happened at the ANFA Complex on Tuesday....
