ISL 2024-25: Luka Majcen’s Cameo Guides Punjab FC To A 2-1 Victory Away At Kerala Blasters
Indian Super League: Filip Mrzljak’s 95th-minute goal ensured Punjab FC (PFC) stunned Kerala Blasters again at Kochi as the Shers walked away with a 2-1 victory and started the 2024-25 season of the Indian Super League (ISL) with a brilliant win at the Jawaharlal Nehru Stadium here on Sunday.
Slovenian striker Luka Majcen continued his goal-scoring prowess, converting a penalty in the 86th minute to give the away side the lead. New Kerala signing Jesus Jimenez levelled the scores, two minutes into injury time but it was Filip Mrzljak who found the winner deep into injury time.
Punjab FC were the more lively team in the first half but the match was mostly played in the centre of the field as both teams struggled to control the possession of the ball for long periods. Nihal Sudeesh, playing against his parent club was lively through the left wing, but his final passes could not find any PFC players inside the box.
