Eastern Sporting Union FC firmly established themselves as the one of the teams to beat in the Women's I-League as they amassed the biggest win of the preliminary stage, smashing UPFC 13-0.

Kamla Devi started the carnage in the seventh minute. Before the half-time whistle went, Union scored five more goals. Umapati and Mandakni scored a goal each in the space of four minutes. Premi Devi netted a brace in the space of two minutes. Three minutes before the half-time whistle, Prameshwori scored her side's sixth.

The onslaught continued in the second half with Bala Devi getting her third and fourth goals of the competition. Around the hour mark, Kamla Devi also got her second goal, her team's ninth.

There was no sign of any respite for the hapless UPFC defence, who would go on to concede 3 goals in the space of 10 minutes – Bembem Devi and Manda Devi's goals were sandwiched by Premi Devi completing her hat-trick. The 13th goal was scored by Haokip, one minute from full-time. Union had also won their tournament opener, a hard-fought 3-2 win against Jeppiyar Institute
