Imphal, October 14 2022:
P Sorormi Thingsang (10', 43') hit a brace as United Brothers FC overwhelmed Angtha FC 3-0 in a Group A match of the 2nd AMFA Cup at Artificial Turf Ground, Lamlong Thongkhong today.
United Brothers FC were in commanding position from the word go dominating the possession and creating a number of chances and were eventually 2-0 ahead before the break thanks to P Sorormi who opened the scoring in the 10th minute before completing his brace in the 43rd minute.
Thotreimung MP then fired home the decisive goal in the 75th minute as Angtha FC hardly troubled the UBFC defence the game throughout.
The day also saw J Songtun Youth Club (JSYC) and Football Club Lamjao share a point each following a 2-2 draw.
The two sides were evenly poised throughout the game and had almost similar possession and scoring chances.
However it were FC Lamjao who had better chances early on and were 1-0 ahead before halftime with the help of Ningombam Henery's goal in the 15th minute.
Henery rose again to score another in the 49th minute to see his team enjoy a comfortable 2-0 lead but JSYC who were unable to make best use of their chances early on pulled back a goal through Jamkhangin Khongsai in the 78th minute before Jangkhosei Kipgen hit the equaliser three minutes later.
Stunned by the two back to back goals, FC Lamjao gave their best to mount pressure on JSYC with a series of attempts but it did not yield any result as JSYC defence line stood firm to deny any change in the scoreline.
