Had Bagmati Youth Club been given the option of a two-goal loss against Tribhuvan Army Club before the game, they would have taken it with both hands. Rather than this, Bagmati's strategy was to score less goals with the Army. And play the best you can. Perhaps to a large extent Bagmati succeeded in this.

Otherwise, a big victory of the army was expected. The second phase of ANFA Women's Football League started on Thursday with the match between Army and Bagmati.

From the first match, at least Army has presented a claim to the title. "We are a contender for the title," said army coach Krishnasingh Thagunna, with a friendly nature, "with this victory, we have added a brick to the house we need to win the title."

He also expected a big victory. So mane, the army team lacks exposure. The team practiced and trained continuously. However, he could not play the game to match it.

"We were probably an army team that forgot to hunt," added coach Thagunna. Army has to thank its national player Vimala Chaudhary for this victory. In the first match of the second round on Thursday at the ANFA complex ground in Satdobato, both goals went to Wimala. She scored one goal each in both halves. She scored the first goal in the 25th minute. Winger Vimala opened the scoring when the opposing goalkeeper advanced. His goal was almost made possible at the empty post.

Vimala added the second goal with a header in the 71st minute. Sapna Lama's corner shot was converted into a goal by Vimala. Although the army continuously attacked during the entire game, most of them were thin  There was a

. Bamgati could not weave any attack. The entire team was busy stopping the army's attack. "We are happy with the result of this game. Our strategy was to be defensive," said Bagmati assistant coach Sonam Lama.

According to him, the team entered the field after 15 days of training. Its performance in the first match was as expected. Especially for Bagmati, getting to play the second round was also an achievement of luck. There are a total of 5 teams in the second round. The top five teams in the first round have decided to travel to the second round. Bagmati was in sixth place in the first round. However, Bagmati got a chance after Koshi, who was in fifth place, withdrew his name from the competition citing financial reasons.

'Thank you to everyone who helped us on our journey here,' Lama did not forget to say this. What is the goal of Bagmati? His answer was, 'We cannot stay in the top three. It will belong to the departmental team. Our aim is to qualify for the eliminators by being in the top four. His argument was, 'Bringing foreign players does not mean winning the title, we want to give opportunities to our own players.'
