Imphal, September 13 2015:
In the 10th Manipur State Football League, a determined Zomi FC side waited patiently to outsmart Southern Sporting Union (SSU) and slammed a solitary goal to win the match 1-0 .
Right from the start, the two teams were pitted against each other in a seemingly equal show of talents.
Bothe sides made equal number of attempts to score but the defence lines of both the teams were equally commendable.

ZFC kept sustaining the efforts to score and made some brilliant attempts but SSU goalkeeper saved most of the attacks.
Similar was the tactics of attack by SSU forwards.
However, most of the attempts by SSU were thwarted by the alert ZFC goalkeeper.
Thus the match ended goalless in the first half.
Even in the second half, both sides made superb efforts to make inroads into their rivals' sides.
Even as SSU players gained form in unifying their attempts, ZFC's Letminthang received a brilliant pass from Gogou Hangshing.
Letminthang surged forward with the lone and drove straight into the rival's camp territory unmarked.
The defenceless USS goalkeeper could not stop Letmintang from slamming a goal at the 87th minute.
Thereafter, the match was more or less decided in ZFC's favour.
Some more attacks from SSU's side could not be converted into goals.
The closely fought match ended 1-0 in ZFC's favour.
Four SSU players were booked yellow cards for faults while no one from ZFC was booked during the match.
