Koshi secures second consecutive win; Waling dominates Karnali

Koshi Province came from behind to secure a 2-1 victory over Bagmati Youth Club in the second round of the ANFA Women's League 2081 on Thursday.

Bagmati took the lead with a goal from Bishnu Maya Bal in the 26th minute. However, Koshi equalized just three minutes later through Samikshya Magar. The match took a decisive turn when Divya Yasmali Magar of Bagmati scored an own goal, handing Koshi their second consecutive victory.

In the day’s second match, Waling Municipality's foreign recruit Jackline Nassali stole the show with a hat-trick, leading her team to a 4-0 triumph over Karnali.

Nassali scored the opener in the 10th minute and doubled the lead in the 41st minute. She completed her hat-trick with a goal in the 73rd minute.

Sukriya Miya added a fourth goal just before the final whistle. This victory marked Waling’s first win of the tournament and left Karnali with two losses from as many matches.

Chandrapur and Karnali draw; APF and Police share spoils

The ANFA Women's League 2081 saw two matches end in draws on Tuesday.

In the first match, Chandrapur Municipality and Karnali Province battled to a 1-1 stalemate. Sunkala Rai gave Karnali the lead in the 7th minute, but Rajani Thokar equalized for Chandrapur in added time at the end of the first half.

The second match, a departmental derby between APF Football Club and Nepal Police Club, was delayed by 15 minutes due to heavy rainfall that waterlogged the artificial pitch at the ANFA Complex.

Once the rain subsided, the game resumed, but neither team could find the back of the net. Defending champions APF dominated possession throughout the match, but Nepal Police's resolute defense kept them from scoring.
