Ranjit Pandre had a chance to double his team’s lead in the 26th minute but Kenkre’s goalkeeper Amrit Gope saved his header. TRAI FC dominated the proceedings of the game and played the ball out from behind as soon as the first half whistled.
In search of a second goal, TRAU started the second half upwards. He achieved his target in just three minutes in the half through Manash Gogoi. Swimming into a beautiful corner at Buanthanglun Samte, Gogoi was able to enter the goal via a cycle kick to double Trai’s lead.
Captain Krishnanand Singh scored the third and last goal of the evening in the 64th minute. Samate gets another assist as he delivers a brilliant pass to Krishnananda, who hits it well with his left foot to kill the game.
Kenkare tried various things to change the approach of the game, but was unable to cause any significant trouble for Trai’s defense in the final 20 minutes of the game. Kenkere also sent in Siddharth Kolako and PC Rohlupuia just after the third goal, but were unable to score a consolation goal as the game ended 3-0.
