Jorhat, Sep 16 (IANS) Haryana qualified for the semifinals of the Sub-Junior Boys’ National Football Championship Tier 2 when they outclassed Chandigarh 7-0 in their last Group B match on Monday.

On the other hand, Manipur strengthened their position in Group B of the Sub-Junior Boys’ National Football Championship Tier 1 when they notched up their second straight three-pointer with an 8-0 victory over Gujarat, on Monday.
Keisham Bikash Singh did the bulk of the scoring for the winners with four goals. Laishram Mahesh Singh, Dennison Pukhrambam, Susan Waikhom and Sapam Sarjit Singh scored the other goals.
