In a dramatic and rain-soaked encounter at the Kalinga, Jerry, and Diego were the heroes of the night, finding the back of the net to secure a hard-fought victory for the home side.
Despite the challenging weather conditions that featured thunder, lightning, and torrential rain, the Kalinga Warriors displayed remarkable resilience and determination to keep a clean sheet.
The match kicked off amidst a downpour, as the wet pitch made ball control difficult, and players had to adapt quickly to the slippery conditions.
The breakthrough moment came right at the end of the first period when Jerry, capitalized on a defensive lapse from Chennaiyin FC. A slick pass from Amey saw Jerry unleash a powerful strike into the bottom corner of the net, leaving Chennaiyin's goalkeeper with no chance.
As the clock ticked down, Chennaiyin FC pressed forward in search of an equalizing goal, leaving spaces in their defense. Odisha took full advantage of this when Diego was brought on and moments later, the team's leading goal scorer, showcased his clinical finishing ability by pouncing on a defensive error by Ankit Mukherjee as the Brazilian calmly slotted it past the onrushing goalkeeper, doubling Odisha's lead to 2-0.
