Lakshya Football Academy Win Hyderabad Golden Cup Final

A final won through variety

The report says Poojitha, Renuka and Aruna each scored two goals for Lakshya. That spread gave Hyderabad no single threat to contain and turned the final into a contest decided by repeated pressure rather than one individual moment.

Poojitha reportedly opened the scoring before Renuka added a second. Ira then pulled one back for Hyderabad, briefly offering the runners-up a route back into the match. Lakshya responded quickly, with Poojitha and Renuka scoring again before half-time.

Aruna completed the scoring with two further goals after the break. The sequence underlined Lakshya’s control: Hyderabad’s response was followed by four more goals from the champions.

Poojitha leads the way

Poojitha’s influence extended beyond the final. The report says she finished the tournament as its leading scorer with 12 goals, making her the competition’s most productive attacker.

Her finishing was central to Lakshya’s success, but the final also showed the value of depth. Renuka’s brace and Aruna’s late contribution ensured the team did not depend on one scorer to carry the attack.

For Hyderabad, Ira’s goal and reported emerging-player recognition offered a positive note despite the heavy defeat. The side reached the final, but Lakshya’s sharper finishing proved decisive when the match opened up.

A platform for the next step

The tournament reportedly featured eight teams across a two-day competition, giving the winning squad a strong platform to build on. Lakshya’s next challenge will be maintaining that attacking balance when opponents have more time to prepare for Poojitha, Renuka and Aruna.

The storyline to watch is whether this final becomes the start of a wider run for Lakshya, or the benchmark their rivals spend the next competition trying to match.
