HIL 2024-25: Arshdeep’s Twin Strikes Sink UP Rudras, Hyderabad Toofans Win 3-1
Earlier, the Hyderabad Toofans won the game's first penalty corner via Rajinder Singh in the fifth minute. Peillat stepped up to the opportunity but could not find a way past the defence. The UP Rudras created a similar chance when Kane Russell fired a goal-bound flick but Mukul Sharma made a fine save on the goal-line. Soon after, Akashdeep Singh had an excellent chance to put the UP Rudras ahead as he had just the goalkeeper to beat but failed to convert and the first quarter ended goalless.
The Hyderabad Toofans broke the deadlock in the 25th minute when Peillat lived up to his reputation as among the world’s best drag flickers. His ferocious strike took a hit off James Mazarelo’s left glove but that didn’t stop the ball from finding the back of the net. The Toofans doubled their lead in the 28th minute when Akashdeep scored a stunning goal. The 20-year-old showed great vision to steal the ball at the edge of the circle and then weaved past two defenders before smashing an unstoppable tomahawk to make it 2-0.
