Akashdeep Singh (28\u2019) gave Namdhari the lead in the first half before Francis Addo (85\u2019) doubled the lead later on. Clarence Fernandes (90\u2019) pulled one back towards the end, but it was too late.<\/p>\r\n\r\n

Though SC Bengaluru were the ones, who needed more urgency in their game, it was Namdhari FC, who had the early chances. As the clock ticked towards the half-hour mark, Cledson hung a ball into the box, which Akashdeep headed home, giving his side the lead.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
Cledson had a couple of more chances in the second half when the game truly began to open up. Bengaluru came out with a strong urge to score the equaliser after the change of ends. Namdhari, however, grew slowly into the contest and began to take control of the proceedings.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
An unmarked Manvir scuffed a shot from near the penalty spot, and substitute Karandeep had his one-on-one effort saved. Bengaluru created a couple of chances at the other end too. Clarence\u2019s header off of a Thomyo Shimray cross from the right went just wide, while substitute Henry Kisekka\u2019s free header from inside the box was saved. Faslurahman Methukayil\u2019s effort from long range also rattled the Namdhari cross-bar, before being cleared.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
