$(A,B)$ with $v in A$ $degree(v)$ odd, and any two vertices in A share even number of neighbours. Show there...

Let $G = ((A,B),E)$ be a bipartite graph in which each vertex of $A$ is of odd degree. Suppose that any two vertices of $A$ have an even number of common neighbours. Show that $G$ has a matching saturating $A$.




My attempt: We try to apply Hall's theorem and use induction on number of vertices in A.



Base case: There are two vertices in A. Then they share at least 2 vertices so there is a matching covering $A$ by Hall's theorem.



Inductive step, Suppose all bipartite graph $(A,B)$ with $|A|=n$ with the stated properties has a matching covering A. Now consider a bipartite graph $(A,B)$ such that $|A|=n+1$. Pick a vertex $v in A$ and consider $(A',B)=(A-{v},B)$ The resulting graph still satisfy the above condition hence has a matching covering A. Hence by Hall's theorem , $S subset A'$ satisfy $|N(S)|geq|S|$. When added ${v}$ back, then I'm not sure if $|N(S cup {v})| geq |S|+1$. So what's should I do next?
