Coimbatore (Tamil Nadu)[India], January 6 : The 11th Yuva Kabaddi Series - Division 1 at the Karpagam Academy of Higher Education in Coimbatore delivered another exciting day of kabaddi action. A nail-biting tie and dominant wins kept fans on the edge of their seats on Sunday.
The day kicked off with a dramatic encounter as the Sonipat Spartans held the Kurukshetra Warriors to a thrilling 34-34 tie. Ankit Dahiya's all-round brilliance earned him 11 points for the Warriors, while Sahil Ahri and Karamveer Mann contributed with four tackle points each. On the other side, Ajay Dhochak's Super 10 and Rahul Ahri's solid defensive performance with eight tackle points ensured the Spartans avoided a loss in this closely contested game.
In the second match, the Aravalli Arrows secured their first win of the tournament, defeating the struggling Murthal Magnets 43-29.
