FASTEST GOAL OF SEASON: Last season's runner-up Kickstart FC bounced back from their first loss of the Indian Women's League (IWL) 2023-24 season to comprehensively beat East Bengal 3-1 at the East Bengal Ground here on Monday.

Kickstart were dominant from the get-go and delivered a swift response after their shocking 1-5 home loss to HOPS last week. The win helped the Bengaluru side keep its title hopes alive as it closed the gap to leaders Odisha FC to two points. East Bengal, on the other hand, remain in sixth place with four points from eight games.
