Rainbow beat Caligat 3:1 in the Calcutta Premier Division regular season on 20 August 2026. Two sides sitting at the bottom of the table met and the hosts came away with the points. Rainbow sit 21st with seven points from eleven games, while Caligat are 23rd on three.
Goals came at the start and middle of the match. Rainbow struck at minute two and minute seven to take an early lead. Caligat responded at thirty-five and thirty-six, but Rainbow added again at forty-three and forty-four to pull clear. The visitors scored once more at fifty-two, though it was too late.
to be fair, neither side looked like dominating for long stretches. Rainbow have lost eight of eleven and only won twice this season. Caligat have not won at all, drawing three and losing eight. The history between them adds an edge to what was otherwise a routine fixture.
Recent form suggests why the result unfolded as it did. Rainbow lost four of their last five, including a heavy defeat to Mезерс on 12 August. Caligat have struggled in similar fashion, losing three of their last five and conceding freely.
by then, this match had already settled matters for the weekend. Rainbow extended their unbeaten run to two games after a difficult spell. Caligat remain winless and now sit eight points behind the team above them. The gap is not insurmountable, but it demands a shift in momentum.
