Roundglass Punjab FC have created history as they have been promoted to the Indian Super League after clinching the I-League with a 4-0 victory over Rajasthan United FC.

RoundGlass Punjab FC capitalized on their title rivals' slip and steered clear of them with six points in their last two games. With 22 games completed, the Punjab outfit have secured 49 points, eight points ahead of Sreenidi Deccan FC with two games remaining.

The Warriors are now beckoning in the Indian Super League, which is unquestionably an achievement to withhold. Given their consistent performances throughout the season, the celebrations will last well into the night.
