However, the CPRF men could not prevent the onrush of THAU forwards who were in a scoring spree. Ikon banged in two successive goals in the 41st and 42nd minute while Chingkhei scored one in the 45+1 minute for THAU.
The two teams went to the break with THAU taking an easy 4-1 lead.
After half time, both sides pushed hard to increase their score.

Johnson Laishram netted one goal for THAU in the 66th minute while Ikon (Shitaljit) slotted home three more goals in the 68th, 84th and 90th minute.
N Stalin booted home another goal for the Thangmeiband outfit to wrap the match in style.
The second match of the day saw NEROCA FC registering a convincing 4-0 victory over IWSC, Khumbong.
NEROCA struck two goals each in both halves even as IWSC players ended up scuttling away.
M Govind Singh (17') and Immanuel (33') netted a goal each for NEROCA FC in the first half.
Feuc Chidi (52') and Ng Ronald (73') completed the scoring for the Sangakpham outfit in the second half.
Even as IWSC strikers tried piling pressure in their rivals' goal area, their efforts were easily warded off by NEROCA defenders.
