Imphal, Aug 16:
Kairang and NESU, Khurai split points after a 1-1 draw in today's match of the MK Ghanendrajit Memorial Super Division football League tournament being organised by Imphal East District Football Association at YOSC ground, Khabeisoi.
After a keenly contested first half ended goalless, a pass from PYA's Lengin Sitlhou saw M Roland break the deadlock in the 72nd minute.
The NESU equaliser resulted off a free kick deep into the rival box when Gandhi Kamei's floater was slammed home by S Ingocha nine minutes later.
Md Abung could have provided maximum points to the Kairang side but delayed in releasing the ball from close with hardly a minute left from time.
Earlier, in the M Ibobi Division I football league tournament being played at the same venue, SSC, Sekta held onto a 19th minute goal from Ph Yaima to collect full points against UPAA, Kyamgei.
Yaima pounced and converted into goal a ball deflected by UPAA custodian Kh Nanao off a powerful drive from W Mohon from near the centre.
