Hunphun Katamnao Long (HKL) FC were crowned champions of the TKS football tournament after they edged out RKL FC by 5-3 goals in a nerve-wrecking penalty today in the summit clash of the tournament at Tashar village ground.
The two finalists today produced an exhilarating start seeking chances to find the lead.
However, none of the teams could break the deadlock during the regulation time.
Mayon Kaping of HKL FC made a brilliant attempt on goal in the first half.
But his header was intercepted by the rivals' defenders.

The second half saw the two teams trying to make a surge.
HKL FC upped their ante and put more pressure on their rivals' citadel.
However, RKL FC defenders stood firm to thwart any danger in their bastion.
Although RKL made some counter attacks, they failed to breach the defence wall of their opponents.
Attackers of both sides could not fully exhibit their attacking prowess due to the muddy ground.
The two teams were tied 0-0 at the end of the normal time.
As such, penalty was put into play to decide the winners.
While five of HKL FC found no difficulty in converting the penalty kicks, just three of RKL FC players found their targets.
HKL FC's custodian Leishiso made two brilliant saves which eventually sealed the team's victory.
