Manisha Kalyan makes her CV richer with new Champions League record

Hindustan Times  

Manisha Kalyan's reputation as one of India's finest footballer elevated further on Tuesday when she added a new “first” in her already rich CV. Coming on as a second half substitute for Apollon Ladies FC in an UEFA Women's Champions League encounter, the girl from Hoshiarpur, Punjab, made not one, two, but three assists, making her the first Indian to achieve the feat in the elite European competition. File photo of Manisha Kalyan in action for Apollon Ladies FC While Manisha was involved in three strikes, Apollon's complete dominance throughout the regulation 90 minutes, plus the injury time, helped them thrash the North Macedonian outfit Ljuboten 9-0 in the UWCL Qualifiers. Apart from the history that Manisha etched on Tuesday, she is also the first Indian woman to score in the AFC Women’s Asian Championship, the first Indian – male or female – to play in the UEFA Champions League, and the first to win a first-division title in Europe.
