Imphal, March 03 2014 :
J Songtun Youth Club (JSYC) and Nelson FC won a berth each for the semi-final of the 3rd Khanglai Meet after registering convincing win over their respective opponents today at Brig Thomas Ground, Kangpokpi.
In the first round of the quarter final match today, JSYC downed Lhungtin Area YC with a 4-0 scoreline while Nelson FC trounced Makokching YC 2-0 .
Neither JSYC nor LAYC could make any headway to alter the scoreline during the first half of the opening match today.
Haopu's brilliant goal in 49th minute however paved way for the J Songtun players to go on the offensive.
Thangtinlen's goals in the 59th and 78th minutes with another goal from Haopu in the 64th minute helped the Songtun team registered their win against the hapless Lhungtin Area YC.
In the second round of the quarter final match, Nelson FC rode on Minthang's two goals to register their win against opponent Makokching Youth Club.
Minthang's first score came as early in the 5th minute followed by another goal in the 29th minute.
Makokching YC's attempt to equalise in the second half of the match proved futile.
Ninou FC will take on Nelson FC in the first semi-final match tomorrow at Brig Thomas Ground, Kangpokpi while FC Zalen is set to make a decisive clash with JSYC in the second round of the semi-final the same day.
