National Women’s Hockey League 2024-2025: Haryana Crowned Champions With 3-2 Win Over Odisha
In the much anticipated final match for the eleven days long competition, Hockey Haryana proved out to be the better one after clinching the title against Hockey Association of Odisha with a 3-2 win. Ahalya Lakra (8’) opened the count on the scoreboard for Hockey Association of Odisha but the crowned champions Hockey Haryana had different plans today. Kajal (12’,22’) scored a brace for her team, joined by Saavi (44’) who also scored one goal for the winning side. Hockey Haryana’s defence restricted the opponent from scoring after the first goal till Dipika Barwa (54’) again found the gap for Hockey Association of Odisha in the final moments of the game but fell short when the final whistle was blown. Hockey Haryana remained at the top position throughout the tournament.
“Our team Hockey Haryana has always been known for playing aggressive hockey and that was the only plan today as well. I asked the team to play freely and play attacking hockey. We have played against Hockey Association of Odisha earlier also, we know how good they are converting penalty corners, our team put a good show in restricting them today and that was the game changer in today’s match” said Dilbag Singh who’s representing Hockey Haryana as the Head-Coach in this tournament.
