Tachikawa opened the scoring in the 28th minute and Murray doubled the lead at the stroke of half-time for the Men of Steel while Cy Goddard reduced the margin for the visitors in the 50th minute. However, Hyderabad FC could not find the equaliser and the hosts claimed three points.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
The match started tactically with both teams taking time to assess the opposition. In the ninth minute, Jamshedpur notched their first proper attack when Imran Khan sent in a delightful cross into the Hyderabad FC penalty box.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
However, Reliance Foundation Young Champs (RFYC) graduate Mohammed Sanan, to whom the ball was intended, fell a yard short. The very same minute saw Hyderabad FC inspire their first move of the game too. Chunga Hmar played a through ball to Cy Goddard and the latter\u2019s cross fell into Lenny Rodrigues\u2019 feet after a deflection from Pratik Chaudhari. Rodrigues meanwhile, punched it straight into Albino Gomes\u2019 palm.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
In the 29th minute, the Men of Steel earned their much-desired lead. Sanan crossed a ball from the left which fell into Imran Khan\u2019s feet after a missed header from Alex Saji. His feeble shot hit the post but Rei Tachikawa was there to turn the ball home.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
Five minutes later, the Japanese midfielder had the chance to score his second of the night. His fiery shot was successfully punched away by Arshdeep Singh. A minute later, Khalid Jamil\u2019s side got another opportunity but Sanan\u2019s attempt was inches away from target. In the 41st minute, Hyderabad FC could have levelled the score as Goddard put a delightful pass on the plate to Chunga whose curling attempt was touched out by the stretching hand of Gomes.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
Just when Hyderabad FC were trying to get back into the game, Jordan Murray extinguished that fire. In the 44th minute, Sanan sent in a pitch-perfect through ball onto Murray, who calmly chipped it over an advancing Singh into the goal.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
Thangboi Singto\u2019s army started the second half on a high. In the 50th minute, they brought one back for their side. Leander D\u2019Cunha went for a long throw into the Jamshedpur FC penalty box, which was headed by Allan de Souza. The Brazilian\u2019s header was left by Pratik Chaudhari, expecting his custodian Gomes to get hold of the ball. But before Gomes could collect the ball, Chunga got a touch to it and Goddard utilised the defensive frailty to ignite the fuel among the visitors.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
Both teams brought in changes to yield their desirable outcome from the fixture. However, the attempts were either not on target or thwarted away successfully. In the end, Jamshedpur FC grabbed the crucial three points.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
