With this qualification, Klasa FC joins fellow Manipuri teams Neroca FC and Trau FC in the upcoming season, as both teams were relegated from last season’s I-League.
In another Group A match that had no bearing on the standings, Diamond Harbour FC edged out Downtown Heroes FC with a late goal, winning 2-1 at Naihati Stadium.
