Paro beat Cirang 7:0 in the Bhutan Premier League Regular Season on Tuesday, 26 August 2026. The hosts opened a six-point gap at the top of the table with a comprehensive victory at their home ground. By then the result felt inevitable given the contrast in form between the two sides.
Paro sit first with 34 points from 13 games — 11 wins, one draw, one defeat. Cirang occupy seventh place on 16 points after 14 matches, with four wins, four draws and six losses. The gap between them has now widened considerably.
The visitors arrived in poor shape, having not won in four league outings. Their last five results show a pattern of inconsistency: a 5:5 draw with Bhutan U19, a 1:1 stalemate against Thimphu, followed by defeats to Transport United and Drukpa, and a 3:3 draw with Retsel. And here's the thing — they did not travel to make up the numbers.
Paro, meanwhile, have been relentless. Their recent run includes a 1:0 win over Retsel, two consecutive 2:0 shutouts against Abu Muslim and Thimphu, and victories of 3:1 over Drukpa and Tensun. They have kept clean sheets in four of their last five matches. The hosts were never in doubt.
A seven-goal margin is unusual this early in the season. Paro's attacking fluidity was on display, while Cirang's defensive frailties were exposed. The result leaves the hosts six points clear at the summit, with a game in hand on several rivals. To be fair, the visitors had already begun to unravel before the final whistle.
