MPC to face Kailali in final
By a Post Reporter
KATHMANDU, March 6- Mahendra Police Club (MPC)
continued their impressive run in the WFC Mangaladevi Women Football tournament as they
hammered a thrashing 7-0 victory to New Danfe Club of Banke.
The match started disastrously for the Danfe girls
from Banke as they conceded goals in a hurry to get four goals behind in the first twenty
minutes of play. The Danfe girls who probably concentrated more on the police strikers of
the likes of Pema Lama and Kiran Bajracharya were rattled by little known Sukra Rai and
Ink Oli in the initial stage of the match.
It was Ink Oli who opened the scoring in the 5th
minute of the match followed by Sukra Rai’s two goals in the 8th and 11th minute.
But Pema Lama could not be kept quiet for too long
as she struck in the 20th and 38th minute of the match to give her side a decisive 5-0
lead.
The police onslaught did not end there as now it
was the turn of other star striker Kiran Bajracharya to get into the act.
The Danfe girls finally heaved a sigh of relief
when the referee blew the long whistle to indicate half time.
Everybody expected another dozen goals by the well
drilled police side but the second half had something else in store.
The Danfe girls putting on a much enterprising
performance surprised every spectator. They tried valiantly to get into the score books
but the lack of clinical touch to convert chances into goals told heavily on them. Even
after close to scoring on a numerous occasions the Danfe strikers failed to deliver the
goods.
On the other hand, it seemed to be a day of double
strikes as Kiran Bajracharya struck her second goal in the 62nd minute to give her side
the seventh goal.
Today’s winner Mahendra Police Club will clash
with Youth Sports Club of Kailali in the final on Wednesday.
