With this result, Churchill were now in the fifth spot with 19 points and Lajong at 10th position with 10 points.
The visitors were in an attacking mood right from the word go, but lack of co-ordination among the strikers and some stunning saves from Lajong goalkeeper Gumpe Rime made it tough for them to find the nets.
