Shillong: A twin strike by foreign striker Owolesho Abey guided Laitumkhrah to an emphatic 3-1 win against Rangdajied United on Monday in Shillong Premier League match at the JN Sports Complex.
Abey scored on both sides of the match with his first goal coming in the 37th minute before he followed it up with another in the 62nd minute.

Laitumkhrah topped up their lead with a stoppage time goal by Rungsing Muinao to script a 3-1 win.
