Imphal, November 30:
Arch rivals Imphal East DFA and Imphal West DFA were locked in a 2-2 draw in today's match of the 5th Inter-District Junior Girls Football League tournament being played at Mapal Kangjeibung.
In the tense clash to assert supremacy in the three team competition, the Imphal West girls twice came from behind to deny their opponents full points.
Lalvormoi Hmar tapped home the Imphal East opener in the 29th minute as the West custodian failed to properly clear off an L Sakuntala long ranger.
After the Imphal West equaliser in the 50th minute through N Chanchan the same side could have taken the lead by the last quarter but Chanchan failed to direct into an open goal.
Even though an I Prameshori-Lalvormoi combination resulted with the latter scoring Imphal East's second goal in the 71st minute Chanchan ensured that Imphal West did not return home with empty handed by lofting over the rival custodian's head to restore parity in the 82nd minute.
