Ahmed Rizuvan (Rizey) was the hero of the night, scoring a brilliant brace in the first half to secure the win. Rizey opened the scoring in the 21st minute from a corner kick assisted by Mirjalol Kasimov Kenzayevich, before doubling the lead in the 32nd minute with a strike into the corner of the net from a pass by Naiz Hassan (Dhadhu). Victory, coached by Mohamed Shiyaz (Mohon), has now amassed 16 points from six matches, remaining undefeated this season. Odi sits in fifth place with eight points.

Rizey came close to a hat-trick late in the match, but his shot drifted just wide of the post.
