The score at interval was 1-1.

A fine combination by Mauripur`s frontrunners Mohammad Hanif, Adnan Sakhi, Imran Hussain and Abdul Ghafoor along with midfielders Nawaz Rehman and Akhtar Hussain resulted in a cross from the right that left-winger Mohammad Hanif headed in, in the 72nd minute.

The win increased Mauripur`s chances of being included in the top eight teams.

Meanwhile Aurora will have to win all of their remaining four matches to make it to the next phase.
