Wayne Vaz missed the last three games owing to an injury he suffered in the game against NEROCA and, Chesterpaul Lyngdoh didn't make a single appearance for the Goan side in the I-League this season.

Their re-introduction to the side changed fortunes for Churchill as they impacted the proceedings of the game immensely. As mentioned before, Wayne Vaz didn't let the wingers cut in and made dangerous overlapping runs.

Chesterpaul Lyngdoh rightfully replaced Nicholas Fernandes in the left wing as his dribbling skills and curling crosses constantly wreaked havoc for the Gokulam defenders.

He even got an assist to his name as he laid the ball in the platter for Willis Plaza to score Churchill's second goal.

With his spirited performance, Chesterpaul Lyngdoh has consolidated his position in Churchill Brothers' starting line-up.
