David Castaneda is running circles around KBFC defenders as they are easily getting caught in attack-to-defence transition. The Colombian this time runs into the box and curls the ball from the right side of the box but Sachin was alert to palm the danger away! KBFC are living dangerously at the moment. The game is slipping away

Sreenidi Deccan are showing why the I-League runners-up were considered a worthy winners as they held ISL runners-up 1-1 in an evenly-contested battle and are now leading KBFC by two goals. If things stay the same after next 45 minutes, they will be leading the Group A.

And referee blows the final whistle. Sreenidi have been very efficient in the first half as they converted two of their three shots on goal with foreign forwards Castaneda and Hassan scoring the goals. KBFC, on the other, hand no shots registered on target as they failed to crack a stubborn Sreenidi defence. A lot of work to be done by the ISL side in the second half. Do return for all the action.
