Bengaluru : Karishma Shirvoikar’s brace helped Kickstart FC clinch hat trick of wins in the season.
Karishma opened her account in 13th minute of the first half, however, Sports Odisha didn’t go down without a fight. Despite conceding early, they made every effort to hit back and were even able to level the score at one point, though unsuccessful.
Sports Odisha made a brief comeback when they equalised in the 27th minute. Their forward Subhadra Sahoo was fouled inside the box by Aruna Bag and Rashmi Kumari Ghising made no mistake from the resultant spot kick.
However, it took Kickstart only six minutes to regain the lead, something they managed to protect till the end. Karishma was once again on target, this time from a deft low header after Munic Minz outwitted a defender to score the winning goal.
