WAPDA took a lead in a initial half when Ayaz Khan found a net in a 35th notation of a match. However, K-Electric equalised by Saddam Hussain in a 67th minute.
Both teams were incompetent to mangle a deadlock in normal and additional time and a compare had to be motionless on penalties, with WAPDA rising victorious.
