IWL 2025-26: East Bengal Go Top Of Table After Drubbing Nita FA 5-0
Substitute Priyangka Devi Naorem: Defending champions East Bengal FC rose to the pole position in the Indian Women’s League 2025-26 with a 5-0 win over Nita Football Academy at the Kalyani Stadium in Kalyani, West Bengal, on Friday.
What was, at least on paper, a top-of-the-table clash turned out to be anything but a tussle of equals on the pitch. East Bengal’s familiar scorers Sulanjana Raul (6′) and Soumya Guguloth (42′) netted in the first half before the Ugandan duo of Resty Nanziri (50′) and Fazila Ikwaput (63′) put the game to bed early in the second half. Substitute Priyangka Devi Naorem capped off the scoring with a fifth goal in the 88th minute.
With four wins in four, East Bengal moved to the summit of the points table. Sethu FC, who won by an equally handsome margin of 5-0 against Sesa on Friday, are in second place with 10 points from five games. Nita FA also have 10 points and have slipped to the third spot, trailing Sethu on goal difference.
