Football News: Himanshu Jangra’s hat-trick powers India to 5-star win v Sri Lanka

India churned out yet another fine performance at the Kalyani Stadium as they beat Sri Lanka 5-0 in SAFF Under-15 Championship. Himanshu Jangra was the star of the show, as he scored a hat-trick, while Maheson and Shubho Paul also netted one each. India gaffer Bibiano Fernandes made two changes to his lineup, with Himanshu Jangra replacing Sridarth upfront, and Satvik Sharma took Sibajit Singh's place in the middle of the park. India attacking midfielder Maheson Singh was in form, giving ample opportunities to striker Jangra. However, the striker finally broke the deadlock when Maheson again found him with a defence-splitting ball, as Jangra slotted it into the net. Soon after, Maheson pulled the trigger from outside the box and doubled the lead, before Jangra scored his second as he slipped one past the Lanka keeper.
