Damanbhalang Chyne struck first in the 21st minute. He curled a shot past Lamlynti goalkeeper Nister Roy Suting. Suting, currently on loan from Langsning, could not stop the momentum. Ricky Chyne added a second goal six minutes later from a central position.

Arkibor Makhroh scored the final goal just three minutes into the second half. Lovingstar Suting set up the play with a sharp through ball. The team leaned on their depth after securing the lead.
