NRT's coach Jeevan Sinkemana, speaking in place of head coach Raju Kaji Shakya who was ill, said they were happy for the win and the vital three points. "Players played very well today. We are happy with the win," said Sinkemana. He added that the team will now try to finish in the top-four spot in the league.
JYC's head coach Kishor Kumar KC said they wanted to win at least a point against NRT today. "We had opportunities which we could not finish and lost rhythm in the second half. We wanted at least a point but could not," said KC.
JYC are 10th in the table with eight points from nine games.
The league will now head for a break and will return after the FIFA international match calendar dates. The postponed match between Chyasal Youth Club and Nepal Police Club will also take place after the break.
