She scored in the 53rd, 78th and 84th minute to complete her hat-trick and then again netted the ball in the 89th minute to score her 4th goal.

She became the first ever Pakistani to score four goals in the match and with this one single performance, she has joined Hajra Khan and Malika e Noor in the list of most international career goals by a Pakistani female player.

Anmol Heera scored another goal for Pakistan in injury time to complete the scoresheet of 7-0.

With this Pakistan’s campaign in SAFF Women Cup, 2022, ended on a winning note.

The team was earlier defeated by Bangladesh and India which stopped them from progressing to the semi-final. It is worth mentioning that this was Pakistan’s first-ever international tournament since 2014.
