BHUBANESWAR 28-Nov-2019
Odisha FC fought back twice to hold Chennaiyin FC to 2-2 draw in their sixth and overall 26th match of the Hero Indian Super League at the Jawaharlal Nehru Stadium in Chennai today. After a barren first-half, Nerijus Valskis (51’) handed hosts Chennaiyin the lead.
But Odisha equalised through Xisco Hernandez (54’). Valskis thought he had given Chennaiyin the win with a second goal in the 71st minute, but Aridane Santana (82’) ensured Odisha returned from Chennai with a point.
The result sees Chennaiyin climb to eighth spot in the table with five points from six games while Odisha, who played out a third consecutive draw, are sixth with six points. Odisha, as expected, had most of the early possession and the first real chance did come their way.
