Indian Bank regains trophy

Sports Correspondent

Madurai: Indian Bank (Chennai) regained the Rajamani memorial trophy, defeating the defending champion Southern Railway (Chennai) 1-0 in the final of the State-level hockey tournament at the Police Centenary Stadium here on Saturday. Southern Railway got the Kanagamani Ammal Trophy.

The all-important goal came a minute from close through penalty corner. V. Raja scored off a rebound from goalkeeper Suresh, who blocked the penalty corner shot taken by Alfred Ascer.

A goal scored by Vimalanathan following a penalty corner helped Indian Overseas Bank defeat last year’s runner-up Integral Coach Factory 1-0 for the third place.
