Manipur got their first win in Group C, defeating Uttar Pradesh 2-0 on Thursday. They scored one in each half.
Md Abash opened the scoring for Manipur in the 21st minute, when he showed good presence of mind to position himself inside the six-yard box to tap in a low cross from the left. Leishungbam Bankimchandra Singh gave Manipur some cushion in the last quarter of an hour, when he skipped past his marker on the right and sent in an attempted low cross, the trajectory of which was goalwards. The ball evaded a melee of legs and a pair of hands as it rolled in at the far post.
