Dimapur, Oct. 27 (EMN): Defending champions Sangzi FC brushed aside Strangers United to enter the semi-finals of the 26th Loyem Memorial Trophy in Tuensang on Sat. Oct, 27.
A hat-trick from Longkoi saw the champions of the 2017 edition register a comprehensive 5-1 victory over Strangers United, their first loss in the tournament at the Loyem memorial ground.
Sangzi were rampant in their attack and while Bei managed to pull back a goal for Strangers United in the first half it was never going to be enough. Samuel and Johny also registered their names in the goal scoring list for the defending champions.
Sangzi FC’s dream of being a champion once again will be determined on Oct. 30 when they face the winners of Oziepik FC and DEF Tsg.
