IOB continues winning streak
Maintaining the victory sequence, Indian Overseas Bank (IOB), the reigning champion, prevailed over State Bank of India 4-0 in a Pool ‘A’ match of the senior division hockey league championship at the Mayor Radhakrishnan Stadium here on Monday.
All the four goals came in the first session. This was IOB’s fifth successive win in the competition.
Put ahead within a minute of the push off by M. Senthil, IOB slowly increased the pressure on the rival defence.
Rajinikanth enlarged the leeway even before the clock could touch the 10th minute. Midway through, M. Saravanakumar struck the third goal and Senthil Kumar completed the tally in the 23rd minute.
Meanwhile, a goal by Ayyappan six minutes after resumption, enabled Sports Authority of India ‘B’ beat Central Excise 1-0.
In another match, Indian Bank was held to a goalless draw by Tamil Nadu Electricity Board.
