Imphal, January 22 2024:
Kangabam Lanngamba hit a treble as Lairenjam Bharat scored twice in Classic Football Academy's (CFA) 8-0 rout of Dimapur Road Athletic Organisation (DMRAO) in the 30th match of the ongoing 1st Premier League at Artificial Turf Ground, Lamlong Thongkhong.
CFA ran riot from the beginning and pumped in 7 goals without reply from DMRAO in the opening half before scoring one more goal in the second half to seal their third victory in 7 matches of the 9-team league tournament.
Lairenjam Bharat opened the floodgate in the 16th minute after DMRAO managed to hold off early skirmishes and got his second in the 20th minute to make it 3-0 after Yendrembam Rohit doubled the advantage in the 38th minute.
The scoring spree continued with Kangabam Lanngamba and Ahongsangbam Samson adding a goal apiece in the 23rd and the 27th minute to make it 5-0 before Lanngamba bounced back again to add two goals back to back in the 31st and the 38th minutes to complete his treble and earn CFA a 7-0 first half lead.
DMRAO regrouped themselves after the break to thwart relentless CFA attacks until VS Thotkadhar Zimik had his way to add the last goal off a penalty in the 56th minute.
DMRAO, however, made sure that they conceded no further goals in the latter part of the game.
