BURIRAM, THAILAND: Striker Sulanjana Raul is still in her teens but has set an exacting standard for herself when it comes to her footballing dreams. And she is not ready to lower her banner, even after scoring her first international hat-trick against IR Iran in the AFC U17 Asian Cup qualifiers Round 2.
Saturday was a big day for the diminutive girl from District East Midnapore in West Bengal, as her three goals helped India end the campaign with a win and three points. But minutes after the battle was over, Sulanjana made it clear she was not walking in the sunshine. Asked about her immediate feelings by the-aiff.com, Sulanjana’s reply was crisp and clear. “I am feeling great and happy to have scored a hat-trick. But overall, I am not satisfied with my performance.
