National Games 2011: Madhya Pradesh shut-out Maharashtra 6-0 – Women’s Hockey Update
Madhya Pradesh Women’s team put in brilliant performance as they shutout Maharashtra 6-0 in the 34th National Games currently being held in Jharkhand, India.
Madhya Pradesh was a stand out in their previous match against Delhi as well as today’s match having won twice. The first goal of the match was shot in the 12th minute by the skilled striker Jameela Bano. The match became serious after a goal
was posted by Madhya Pradesh and Maharashtra struggled to attack on front foot. The matter was equally important for the Maharashtra’s defence to save the goal from the opponents attack but they failed when Ranjita Sanasam slotted the second goal for Maharashtra
in the 25th minute.
This sudden goal was retorted very well by the Maharashtra and they managed to reduce the Madya Pradesh score attempts with the help of their goal-keeper, Rajni Etimarpu’s time to time calls for countering the attacks. Finally, the first half ended with
a 2-0 score.
With the second half started, Madhya Pradesh managed to avail a penalty corner provided to them that was brilliantly scored by Pinky Devi in the 41st minute. The Maharashtra Women did not lose hope and began to defend and attack for chasing the
three score lead.
Eight minutes later, another penalty corner went in favour of Madhya Pradesh that was struck by Rajita Mullick in the second half. Coincidently, another eight-minute gap lead to the third penalty corner in which again Pinky Devi, the striker appeared to
get hold of this goal, putting the lead to 5-0 for Madhya Pradesh in the 61st minute of the match.
With just four minutes left on the clock, Maharashtra knew it was a lost cause as the match had gone out of their hands and repented such a failure when the concluding goal was put in by the striker, Vandana Katariya taking the score to a massive lead of
6-0.
Maharashtra standing helpless in the field tried to compensate the loss by winning a goal but the match ended up where Maharashtra was trailing by 0-6.
