GUWAHATI: Assam State Electricity Board Sports Club (ASEBSC) stormed into the semi-final of the Bordoloi Trophy beating Assam Regimental Centre 4-1 in group ‘B’ match held at the Nehru stadium here today.

In another match, held at Sonapur, Green Valley FC kept their hope alive to earn a semi-final berth beating Navajyoti club 4-0.

On the other hand, Akrang Narzary scored the last two goals for ASEBSC in the 56 and 89 minutes respectively. Venlalpeka returned one for ARC in the 49th minutes.
