Southern Sporting Union (SSU) notched up a convincing 2-0 win over Rising Athletic Union (RAU) in Friday's action of 1st Premier League 2023-24 at Artificial Turf Ground, Lamlong Thongkhong.
It was a keenly contested first period that saw back-and-forth exchanges with neither side able to capitalise on their opportunities.
