Chennai

In the final played at the Reliance Corporate Park, Ghansoli, PS Secondary went down 0-4 to Shillong’s Umthli Secondary School. The battle was a story of two halves. In the first session, the Chennai girls defended with all their might but caved in the second as its rivals proved too strong for it. 

After a barren first half, midfielder Wandashisha Mawrien broke the deadlock with a 36th minute strike and 10 minutes later defender Aidaris Kharmalki doubled the lead. Its star striker Nisilia Majaw then held centre-stage with a brace of goals in the 55th and 60th minutes to seal an easy victory. 

The Umthli girls attained an invincible status with this success as it did not lose a single match this season, winning the RFYS City and Zonal championships. It dominated the golden awards as well with Nisilia bagging the golden boot, midfielder Marbarin Nongrum, the fulcrum of its attack, clinching the golden ball and goalkeeper Banrisha Wahlang winning the golden glove. 

All winners got prizes worth Rs 3 lakh each while the runner’s-up were richer by Rs 1 lakh each.
