Reson Malngiang added one for Nangkiew in the 23rd minute to dash all hopes of a spirited Malki side.
If not for some brilliant saves by Malki keeper Skhemborlang, it could have been a bigger victory for Nangkiew who failed to score from as many as two penalties.
The first penalty was offered in the first half. Honourluck tried placing the ball past Skhemborlang, who made a wonderful diving save to his left.
