Despite 2-0 lead, Mirpur FC continued to take control of the game against hapless NYC and it was Munga who slotted home the ball to record his second goal in the 50th minute before Maithalung also managed his second in the 62nd minute and put his team clear ahead with a 4-0 lead.
Condition for already depleted NYC worsened when Samuel off Mirpur FC banged in a powerful shot past the- custodian in the 67th minute and make it 5-0.With NYC unable to pull back a goal, the game ended 5-0 in Mirpur FC's favour.
