28′ Marcelinho attempts to go solo, doesn’t get past Tiri
25′ Marcelinho takes a shot from distance. Goes high and wide
24′ Gurtej called for a foul in the box after Marcelinho takes that flag-kick. Set-piece wasted for the visitors who really need to build a bit of momemtum against a much more comfortable Jamshedpur
23′ Marcelinho chases down the ball near the line and wins a corner. Can Hyderabad make something from this?
21′ Castel not able to control Piti’s floater inside the box. There were a couple of other red shirts in the box
20′ CHANCE! Castel does well to tug off Gurtej to win the ball on the left and lays it off for Piti, whose shot on target is blocked by Kamaljit
18′ Crosses coming in from both sides but out of reach for Castel and Farukh waiting in front of goal
17′ CHANCE! Piti’s free-kick, following Adil’s foul on Castel, headed from the right by Memo towards Farukh in the middle of the Hyderabad box. Farukh not able to get it on target
15′ Hyderabad corner after Gurung’s clearance, taken by Marcelinho, headed away by the Jamshedpur defensive line
13′ Tiri with a courageous header right in front of Robin to deal with danger in his area. That’s the kind of defending that can be branded as Tiri defending
12′ Yellow card Marko Stankovic
12′ Stankovic enters the referee’s books for his challenge on Monroy
9′ MISS! Farukh with another opportunity his way but a point blank save by Kamaljit this time. A long ball up front and just about an outstretched left foot trying to change direction and the rival custodian had it covered
8′ CHANCE! Isaac takes aim from distance. Kamaljit has spilled it but not that Farukh would get to it and in the end pulled towards safety by the Hyderabad defense
7′ The Brazilian’s left-footer would sway wide of the right post
6′ Stankovic has won a free-kick for Hyderabad. Marcelinho is to take it
4′ Marcelinho stripped off the ball as soon as he had it at his feet. Hyderabad still trying to build up play from their backline. Robin Singh shrugged off on the left as well
2′ Farukh makes a paceful run on the right side but it’s defending to the point by Panwar
1′ It’s kick-off at the JRD Sports Complex in Jamshedpur
We are moments away from kick-off then. Jamshedpur are in their home colours in red and Hyderabad sporting a bright yellow skin
On the other hand, experienced gaffer Phil Brown has moved to another city but quite the same team who need to get their strengths to the fore, if you talk about the kind of names they’ve got in their side. Marcelinho and co. have to come back strong to put the 5-0 drubbing behind them
Basically, Jamshedpur are quite the same resolute side at the back despite the new coach in Antonio Iriondo taking charge. The defense also gives the forwards the much needed confidence to push forward in numbers, as was the case against Odisha FC even playing as a 10-man side
Tiri and Kamaljit are the captains for their respective sides with Jamshedpur’s Bikash Jairu suspended for the tie on account of his sending off in the last match
Hyderabad substitutes: Kattimani (GK), Ashish, Akhand, Negi, Tavora, Gani, Abhishek
Jamshedpur substitutes: Rafique (GK), Augustin, Lourenco, Karan, Acosta, Aniket, Passi
The benches are as follows…
Hyderabad FC XI: Kamaljit (GK), Panwar, Gurtej, Kilgallon, Yasir, Rohit, Adil, Stankovic, Marcelinho, Poojary, Robin
Jamshedpur FC XI: Subrata (GK), Keegan, Memo, Tiri, Gurung; Monroy, Piti, Mobashir, Farukh, Isaac, Castel
Let’s have a look at the starting line-ups of the two sides in contest today…
So it’s the second home game on the trot for the hosts after managing a 2-1 win over Odisha FC despite being a man down, while the visitors faced a 5-0 defeat at the hands of ATK in their last outing
Hello, welcome to the live match centre for the Indian Super League clash between Jamshedpur FC and Hyderabad FC at the JRD Sports Complex.
