JAMSHEDPUR, Nov 27: East Bengal dished out a top display of counter-attacking football as they sealed a 3-1 win against Jamshedpur FC in the Indian Super League here on Sunday.
Both teams had made a host of changes following last week’s results.
East Bengal took control of the game early on as Suhair VP put them in front just 90 seconds into the game. Naorem Singh put in a dipping cross towards the far post. Suhair produced a low diving header to slot the ball into the net.
Cleiton Silva got into the action to put EB 2-0 ahead in the 26th minute.
Towards the end of the half, Jamshedpur FC were awarded a penalty after Lalchungnunga was found to have elbowed Harry Sawyer while contesting a header. Thomas got his chance to get on the scoresheet and took it to make it 2-1 at half-time.
After the restart, Naorem picked up the ball on the left side and chose to slip a perfect grounded pass between the two central defenders and the goalkeeper as Silva burst through to find his second goal of the night.
That 58th minute goal also put Silva on top of the scoring chart for this season. (PTI)
