Zarqa (Jordan), February 6

Shilji Shaji scored four goals as India’s U-17 women’s team thrashed Jordan 7-0 in a friendly match here today.

Shaji struck in the 2nd, 37th, 74th and 76th minutes while Manisha Kumari (13th), Pooja (18th) and Sanjana (90th 1st) were the other goalscorers at the Prince Mohammed Stadium.

The Young Tigresses are preparing for the AFC U-17 Women’s Asian Cup, which is set to take place next year. This was the first international match the newly-assembled squad played after they set camp in Chennai last month.

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).
