WFC, Moirangkhom rode on K Phalguni, N Pritam and Nonglei to secure a huge 8-0 win against AFC, Athokpam in a Group B league match staged today.

L Sanatomba of WFC scored the second goal in the 13th minute before N Pritam (22', 40') and Nonglei (32', 37') pumped in two goals against the hapless Athokpam side and handed a convincing 8-0 victory.
In another interesting Group D league match of the day, Sonalika FC, Konungmamang relied on Naoba's brace to seal a 3-0 victory over Meira FC, Tekcham.
Naoba opened up the account for Sonalika FC early in the 6th minute before he netted another in the 52nd minute of the match.
The other goal was struck by his compatriot Subash in the 23rd minute.
Meanwhile, a press release issued by the organising club stated that two teams, namely MPSC, Pangei and Angtha FC have been withdrawn from the ongoing tournament and a new fixture will be soon intimated for proper organisation.
