Imphal, December 09 2021:
Tampi YC overcame a stiff challenge from Lambung YCC to win the 1st PS Ningam, Chamshel & Richard Memorial Cup 2021 on Thursday at Chakpikafong playground.
The Tampi side outscored Lambung 2-1 in the final match.
Tampi started with a bang as they needed only three minutes from kickoff to break Lambung's defence and set up Mojahring to put the ball into the net.
Then a tight tussle ensued for much of the first half until Phowlthahring scored in the nick of time to give Tampi a comfortable 2-0 lead just before the halftime whistle.
Lambung went on the offensive from the word go after the interval and they were soon rewarded as Angnahririg halved the deficit in the 54th minute.
Buoyed by the goal, the Lambung squad upped the intensity but Tampi were resolute in their defence and clung on to ultimately secure their victory and well deserved trophy.
Tampi YC's Morning (jersey no.l) was adjudged as the best goalkeeper, Chakpikarong YC's LH Beno (jersey no 11) walked away with the top scorer award and HL Thanpingam (jersey no 8) was named best player.
