by Chittu Shetty January 30, 2020

Sethu FC registered a gargantuan 9-0 victory over BBK DAV in their Hero Indian Women’s League (IWL) Group A fixture on Thursday to get their campaign back on track.

The defending champions were stunned by Krypsha FC in their previous outing, but the Madurai outfit displayed great character to emerge from the shackles of defeat.

The match was one-way traffic through and through, with two quickfire goals from Sandhiya and K. Sumithra, both strikes being a carbon copy of one another, gave Sethu a two-goal cushion inside 18 minutes.

It was Sandhiya again who pounced upon a loose ball inside the 18-yard box and rounded the keeper to make it 3-0 in the last minute of the half as Sethu went into the breather with a convincing 3-0 lead.

Karthika’s left-footed drive into the bottom corner made it 4-0 in the 50^th minute, which came before Sumithra’s dazzling solo effort, in which she went past five BBK defenders to make it five at the hour mark.

Sandhiya completed her hat-trick in the 81^st minute, yet again pouncing on a loose ball and displaying nerves of steel — rounding the keeper yet again to make it 6-0.

The floodgates continued to crumble as Karthika made it 7-0 with an audacious chip from outside the box. Just a minute later, substitute Kunti Kumari made it 8-0 after she was fed on goal by Sandhiya.

A jump in time added the ninth as Karthika joined the hat-trick club by scoring her third from an 89^th-minute corner. The match ended soon after as Sethu FC registered a monumental 9-0 victory.
