It is becoming an enjoyable and competitive Indian Super League (ISL) 2021-22. While the tournament’s first half is nearly done, the second half would soon get underway. The second half schedule was announced on Tuesday, as it would be running between January 10 to March 5, held entirely in Goa across the three current venues (Fatorda, Bambolim and Vasco da Gama).

The opening half of the 2021-22 ISL has been highly competitive. Although defending champion Mumbai City FC (MCFC) is set to enter Christmas as the top-ranked side, only eight points separate it from the bottom-placed SC East Bengal (SCEB). Also, with the transfer market opening in January, more firepowers are expected to be added by the teams.
