Shillong, Feb 16: Laitkor crushed Wahingdoh 7-1 in Group B of the Shillong Sports Association’s Second Division at Third Ground, Polo, here today.
This was the biggest margin of victory in 90 SSA matches across the Second, Third and Fourth Divisions this season.
The first half was pretty even, with Laitkor going into the break leading 2-1. However, the boys in blue ran rings around Wahingdoh’s defence early in the second half.
Sondy Felix Kharkongor scored five of the goals for Laitkor (5’, 45’, 53’, 61’, 85’) and Euvasius Mawthoh two (54’, 59’). Weshalstar Kharumnuid (37’) produced Wahingdoh’s only goal.
With this massive victory, Laitkor move to the top of Group B. They are tied with Sohiong on 8 points each. The two teams had drawn 2-2 on 9th February, so goal difference is required to separate them. On this measure, Laitkor lead by +7 to Sohiong’s +4.
