Back with a healthy 3-0 lead, Mohammedan resumed the second half in a  more organised way and added three more goals in the second half as Diabate scored in the fourth goal in 70th minute and Sourav Dewan made the score line 5-0 in the 80th minute.

Rafayel Tudu reduced the margin scoring a lone goal for Fakirerpool in the 86th minute while Diabate sealed the victory scoring his fifth and sixth goal for team in the 90th minute of the match.
