Shillong, Sep 2: Meghalaya started with an unbelievably one-sided win – by 23-0 – against Dadra & Nagar Haveli and Daman & Diu in their first match of the U-17 boys’ Subroto Cup in New Delhi today.
Two players scored double hat-tricks against the Union territory – Alice (7) and Mebanlamlynti (6). Banpliebok (3) also scored a treble, while Pynshai produced two goals, and Franky, Banganson, Bipiush, Andrew and Mebatskhem one each.
Meghalaya are being represented at the national-level tournament by Mynken Christian Higher Secondary School of Ri-Bhoi, which won the state-level Subroto Cup in July.
Meghalaya are in Group F, with the other teams being Chandigarh and Bihar.
Their next match will be against Chandigarh tomorrow at 2:30PM.
