Winning AIFF Futsal Club Championship Is A ‘memory I Will Always Cherish,’ Says Coach Rizwan

Winning AIFF Futsal Club Championship: Corbett FC took the futsal court in Gujarat by storm. Debutants only by name, but not by their game, the club scored a staggering 48 goals in seven games en route to lifting the trophy after Sunday's final. The numbers speak for their dominance.

But they were given a real test by Golazo FC, and it took an extra-time winner from who else but PC Lalruatsanga in the 49th minute to seal the title. Twice Corbett had taken the lead in regular time, but Golazo crawled back each time. However, when teenage sensation Lalruatsanga, hiding in plain sight at the back post, slid in to convert Pratik Swami's inch-perfect cross, there was no time for another comeback.

Corbett FC ran out deserved winners, becoming the first Uttarakhand side to win an AIFF tournament. Lalruatsanga's 17 goals, more than a third of the total scored by Corbett, earned him the Golden Boot.
