Putting up a last ditch effort, USA Khurai managed to get their opening when M Boy Singh slotted home a goal in 83 minute, which turned out to be the lone goal and proved not enough to save the match. USA player L Sanju Singh and SAK Yumnam Khunou player N Rupachandra got yellow cards in the match for rough tackles.
