Neemuch, Sep 12 (IANS) Andhra Pradesh and Madhya Pradesh topped their respective groups to qualify for the semi-finals of the Sub-Junior Girls' National Football Championship 2024-25 Tier 2.
While Andhra Pradesh triumphed over Andaman & Nicobar 6-2 in their concluding Group A match to top the group with nine points, Madhya Pradesh blanked Uttar Pradesh 6-0 to finish their Group C engagements with nine points and set up a semi-final clash with Andhra to be played on Saturday.
For Andhra Pradesh, who led 3-0 at half time, V Sai Thanu Sri opened the scoring in the 13th minute, followed by a goal from Chinnapareddy Ganga in the 22nd minute.
