A double strike by Senorita Nogngpluh powered FC Pune City to a 3-0 victory over United Poona SA in an all-Pune final of the WIFA Women's Football Championship, conducted as part of the FIFA-AIFF state development project here.

Showing better understanding and coordination, FC Pune City enjoyed the lion's share of the attacks.

With some tight defending, they kept the rival strikers in check and did not provide them much scope to have a shy at their goal.

Dominating play from the start, Pune City took an early lead when hard-working striker Senorita found the target in the 5th minute.
 

Five minutes later, Pune City doubled the lead when their prolific and consistent scorer Muriel Adam found the back of the net.

With not much of a challenge from United Poona, the dominant Pune City increased the lead with Senorita striking her second goal in the 22nd minute of the 30-minute encounter.

Having established a commanding 3-0 half time lead, Pune City took things a bit lightly in the second period and and did not add to the scoreline.
