ISLAMABAD: Customs delivered a stunning attacking display, thrashing Gilgit-Baltistan 15-0 on the fifth day of the National Under-18 Hockey Championship at the Bunda Ground on Monday.

Dominating from the outset, Customs unleashed relentless pressure on the opposition defence, scoring at will and leaving Gilgit-Baltistan with no room to recover. Hassan and Usman led the charge with three goals apiece, while Umar, Adeel and Armaan netted two each. Chavez Khawar, Yahya and another goal from Hassan completed the rout in a completely one-sided affair.

In the second match, Khyber Pakhtunkhwa (KPK) 1 registered a comfortable 4-0 victory over Sindh 2. Shajeel, Abbas, Uzair and Shah Mir each found the net to ensure a commanding win for KPK 1.
