Churchill Brothers recorded their first win of the Hero Indian Women's League on Wednesday beating Lords FA Kochi 3-1 at the Shahibaug Police Stadium.
In a keenly fought game, Riya Sharma scored two minutes before halftime to give Churchill the lead at the break. Within 10 minutes of the second period though, Kathleen Rodriguez slotted home a penalty to draw Lords FA level. The goal was her eighth of the season, the third highest tally in the league.
The difference though came in the final 15 minutes of the game. Saniya scored a second for Churchill in the 79th minute, and then got one more in injury time to ensure the Goan outfit picked up their first win of the season. The forward was named the Player of the Match for her game changing display.
