Arya Vidya Mandir captain Radhika Vyas said: “It’s feels great to win back-to-back titles. But, I am quite disappointed as I would have preferred to play and win the match. We were confident of winning the final.” Earlier, in the third place match, Cathedral defeated an eight-strong Bombay Scottish (Mahim) 2-0. Piyya Shah and Anasuya Raju scored a goal each for the Cathedral team.
