In high scoring second leg matches of the 4th Manipur State League Football tournament TRUGPU, Nambol edged past YWC, Thambalkhong 3-2 as NEROCA, Sangakpham humbled MBSU, Wahengbam Leikai 5-0 .
In the first match played today at Khuman Lampak Main stadium between TRUGPU and YWC, which was the formers' home game, the Nambol side established a commanding 3-0 lead with L Gouro scoring in the 22nd and 30th minutes, and L Indrakumar netting the third in the 51st minute.
even though, YWC fought back to narrow down the score deficit through K Rocky (52nd) and Ingobi (71st), TRUGPU prevented further goal to bag full points against the same side it had defeated 2-0 in the first leg.
NEROCA's 5-0 rout of MBSU in the second match today not only avenged the first leg 1-2 loss to the Wahengbam Leikai side but was NEROCA's biggest victory margin so far in the competition.
After a barren first half, Th Surjit converted a 58th minute penalty which was followed by four more goals, including a hattrict by H Chakravarti, in a span of 10 minutes.
Five minutes after Ng Tomarjit doubled the lead in the 77th minute, Chakra-varti struck his first and completed the hattrict with goals in the 84th and 88th minutes.
