New Delhi: The Kerala Blasters-Punjab FC match in the Indian Super League is goalless after the first half. The Blasters made good strides but lacked sharpness in attack. The match will be played at the Jawaharlal Nehru Stadium in Delhi, the home ground of the Punjab team.
Yellow Pada had the upper hand in ball possession and passing game. The Blasters were without coach Ivan Vukomanovic, who was banned by the All India Football Federation for criticizing the referees. Yellow Pada will need nothing less than a win as they look to shake off the fatigue of their humiliating one-goal loss to FC Goa and reclaim top spot in the points table.
Punjab, who were promoted as I-League champions, entered the ISL with only draws and defeats. The second-placed Blasters have 17 points from nine matches with five wins, two draws and a loss. They have to win by a big margin if they want to overtake Goa who have 20 points and go ahead today. Punjab is at the 11th position with five points.
Blasters continued their unbeaten run at home and lost in away matches. First to Mumbai and then to Goa.
