“I am thankful to my team and coach.”: FC Pune City’s Senorita Nongpluh
Prior to WIFA (Western India Football Association) Women’s Championship, who’d have thought a 13-year old would take the Championship by storm? Earlier this year, FC Pune City’s star striker Senorita Nongpluh made the headlines when she became the youngest Player ever to feature in the Indian Women’s League.
A few days later, she broke another record after scoring against Aizawl FC to become the youngest goalscorer ever in the National League. Even Indian Women’s Team legend Bembem Devi praised her when she was up against Senorita herself during a league game.
“She reminds me of myself,” Bembem said.
Yesterday, after the post-match presentation, she thanked her teammates and coach for giving her the opportunity and support. Not to forget, it was Senorita who scored twice to help FC Pune City lift the title.
When asked how she has gelled and mingled with the team so well, the 13-year old said: “I am with them since the last five years. Though I feel new to them, we have always mingled pretty well with each other. We crack jokes and I have a special bond with everyone.”
“Each one of them has treated me like parents. I am so thankful to the whole team and coach for playing and encouraging me throughout the Championship,” Senorita said.
“I want to improve on shooting, whenever I enter the box, I have always tried dribbling instead of finishing. That’s where I want to improve,” Senorita on where she needs to improve to become a much better player.
