Dashing striker Roger Sam opened the scoring in the 29th minute before Nascimanto Santiago netted the second in the 37th minute to give KSA a healthy 2-0 half-time lead.
KSA continued in the same vein on resumption and within the opening 15 minutes of the second period they struck three goals to completely knock the fight out of the Companeroes side. Charnel De’Almeida scored the third goal in the 50th minute and three minutes later Johnson D’Silva increased KSA’s lead to 4-0. Former international Steven Dias joined the party by hammering home the fifth goal on hour mark.
Thereafter, KSA decided to close shop and did not add more goals to their tally saving Companeroes from further embarrassment.
