The first half saw both teams evenly matched an create few scoring chances but were either intercepted by opposing defenders or their attempts went too wide.
The second half began in a similar fashion as the first half making poor finishes in the beginning.
The breakthrough however arrived in the 73rd minute with P Romesh launching into forward to bang in a clinical shot before chipping in another goal in the 75th minute.
The Keirak side were shaken by the two quick goals as they looked flustered at the back.
