RoundGlass Punjab FC (RGPFC) has won the inaugural JSW Youth Cup 2021-22 by defeating Reliance Foundation Young Champs 2-1.

Midfielder Manglenthang Kipgen scored the deciding goal in the last minute of the match. The side remained unbeaten through the competition. They defeated SESA FA Goa 2-) and Reliance Foundation Young Champs 2-1, and played two draws against Dempo SC (1-1) and Bengaluru FC (1-1). The entry to the final was secured with a thrilling penalty shootout victory against Bengaluru FC.

“We are delighted with our team’s fantastic display. They showed great character to emerge victorious in a prestigious competition, which had players from some of the best academies in India,” said Nikolaos Topoliatis, RGPFC Football Director.

The Tribune, now published from Chandigarh, started publication on February 2, 1881, in Lahore (now in Pakistan). It was started by Sardar Dyal Singh Majithia, a public-spirited philanthropist, and is run by a trust comprising five eminent persons as trustees.

The Tribune, the largest selling English daily in North India, publishes news and views without any bias or prejudice of any kind. Restraint and moderation, rather than agitational language and partisanship, are the hallmarks of the newspaper. It is an independent newspaper in the real sense of the term.

The Tribune has two sister publications, Punjabi Tribune (in Punjabi) and Dainik Tribune (in Hindi).
