In uncertain times, Gokulam Kerala FC try to keep the faith
Hindustan Times“Full punch, we are going ahead,” said Priya PV, the Gokulam Kerala FC women’s team head coach, her enthusiasm coming through on the Whatsapp call from Tashkent. The Iran team left as scheduled but Ashok Kumar, the GKFC CEO, who is with the team in Uzbekistan, said they weren’t provided flight tickets. Priya said the players are dealing with this like “sportspersons.” Nearly 18 of the 30 players on their roster, including Aditi Chauhan, Dalima Chibber and Ghanaian striker Elshaddai Acheampong, who scored two goals in this competition last year and 20 in the 2021-22 Indian Women’s League to win the golden boot, have left, said Kumar. “We have also got our No.9 Savitra Bhandari back from injury.” And they have six India players including captain Ashalata Devi, the defender having joined from Sethu FC this term.
