Kohima outfit Enpunto Football Club (EFC) remain the only out-station team to vie for the title of the 28th Shirui Lily Cup National Football Tournament.
Out of two out-station teams to take part in the tournament EFC advanced to the semifinals with a 4-2 victory over TRAU, Kwakeithel via tie-breaker at TNL Ground, Ukhrul today.
With Itomba netting the TRAU goal in the 28th minute and Kethozhapu restoring parity for EFC in the 79th the penalty shoot-out ended at 3-1 in favour of the visitors for whom Khesito, Chumbemo and Kobou converted from the spot compared to the lone success of Itomba out of four attempts.
The first semifinal tomorrow will feature TRUGPU versus AIM at 1.30 while EFC play NEROCA on November 4 for the other place in the summit round.
