It's always exciting to make post in a community like Steem4Nigeria. Before I start I would like to invite two fellow Steemians @zulbahri and @chiagoziee to participate in the contest.

West Bengal took on Kerala at G. M. C. Balayogi stadium in Hyderabad and that was the 78th national football championship of the Santosh trophy on the last day of the previous year. Santosh Trophy, is an inter-state national football competition. Prior to launching the National Football League Santosh trophy was considered the top national tournament

Actually Bengal (West) was the Macca of football. The players' dream was to play in Bengal and represent the Bengal football team.

Karala has so much Firepower and their dominance has been parallel but the right words from BB Thomas the coach of Kerala. he said the Santos trophy final is like the World Cup to us.

Unfortunately due to corporatisation all Bengal Teams were sold to big business houses and they hired players from all over the world ignoring local players. The teams are engaged in ISL like IPL format of cricket.

As a result of that Bengal lost its glory and for the last 8 years they failed to win the Santosh trophy. This year the local players of Bengali sparked to defeat kerala by 1-0 in the final.

Robi Hansda scored in total 12 goals in the tournament including the winning goal in the final.

Yesterday the sports minister personally cordially received the winning team at the Airport.
