A rapid-fire double blow sealed the result, as Ingudam Suraj found the net in the 89th minute, followed immediately by a 90th-minute strike from Konthoujam Lemba to completely shut the door on any hopes of a YAC comeback.
With the win, YWC-M amassed 10 points from 5 matches to provisionally hold pole position.
