ISL 2024-25: Clinical East Bengal Hand Chennaiyin FC 2-0 Defeat At Home
Vivekananda Yuba Bharati Krirangan: Despite dominating early proceedings, Chennaiyin FC suffered a 2-0 defeat against East Bengal SC in their Indian Super League 2024-25 clash, failing to convert their chances in the match played at the Jawaharlal Nehru Stadium here on Saturday. Vishnu P.V. (53') and Jeakson Thaunaojam (83') scored the goals as a clinical East Bengal side punished the Marina Machans in the second half of the match.
Chennaiyin head coach Owen Coyle opted for a midfield pairing of Connor Shields and Lalrinliana Hnamte, with Lukas Brambilla deployed further forward. In the attack, Daniel Chima Chukwu replaced Wilmar Jordan Gil, supported by Farukh Choudhary and Irfan Yadwad.
Back in front of their home crowd after almost a month, Chennaiyin started positively. Shields caused early chaos in the East Bengal box with a dangerous cross, leading to an early corner. From the resulting set-piece, defender PC Laldinpuia headed the ball straight at the goalkeeper, registering Chennaiyin’s first shot on target.
