Manipur Secure Record-extending 23rd Rajmata Jijabai Trophy With Win Over Odisha
Ramakrishna Mission Ashrama Ground: Manipur’s near-monotonous monopoly over the Senior Women's National Football Championship remained uninterrupted after they defeated Odisha 1-0 in the final of the Rajmata Jijabai Trophy at the Ramakrishna Mission Ashrama Ground on Monday.
After a barren first half, defending champions Manipur made sure of taking home the trophy for the 23rd time out of the 29 editions played so far when striker Asem Roja Devi booted in the winner through a jungle of legs off a corner kick in the 55th minute.
Odisha once more had to stay content with the runners-up trophy as it was their sixth defeat in seven finals, all against the ultimate champions Manipur.
