In a well-contested encounter, Don Bosco took an early lead through a field effort from Harsh More in the fifth minute and doubled the score when Kris Benson found the target from another field goal in the 10th minute to go into the break with a healthy 2-0 advantage.
Don Bosco increased their lead when Faizuddin Siddique scored the third goal in the ninth minute of the second half.
