I-League runners-up, who were trailing 0-2 till the 70th minute, sealed the game in a matter of 12 minutes.

 

Kerala were leading 2-0 for most of the match, thanks to the goal scored by Victor Pulga and Prasanth in the 11th and 49thminute respectively.

 

What looked a victory of sorts for Kerala, was overturned by the Manupur side when Jean-Michel Joachim scored the first goal in the 70th minute. Aryn Glen Williams netted the second one in the 79th minute and Felix Chidi scored the winner off a penalty in the 82nd minute.
