ISL 2024-25: 10-man Odisha FC Eke Out 1-1 Draw With Punjab FC, Stay In Playoffs Race
A red card in the 44th minute to Rahul KP, pegged Odisha FC on the backfoot as Giakoumakis opened the scoring in the first half. The second half saw Vanlalruatfela’s strike level things up for the Juggernauts in the 52nd minute as they eventually salvaged a point from a tricky fixture. Despite the draw, both teams are well and truly in playoff contention heading into the rest of the matches. Odisha FC now have 26 points and are placed seventh, whereas Punjab FC are ninth with 24 points. To put things into context, the sixth-placed NorthEast United FC have 29 points to their name.
Punjab FC got off the blocks quicker than the hosts as they looked positive in the initial exchanges of the game. Ezequiel Vidal made some telling moves in a free role as he found pockets of space near the Odisha FC final third. He delivered a fine ball for Ivan Novoselec from a corner but it was blocked. Later, his exceptional cross found Petros Giakoumakis in the box and the Greek forward headed it past Amrinder Singh in goal only to get flagged offside.
