Kerala Blasters FC held on for a 2-1 aggregate victory against Jamshedpur FC in the semi-finals of the ISL Playoffs 2021-22 following a 1-1 draw in the second leg.
Following a litany of missed chances, Adrian Luna put the Tuskers ahead with a curled finish after a mazy run. The Red Miners slowly built their way into the match and eventually leveled scores through Pronay Halder's close-range finish in the 50th minute.
Jamshedpur FC continued to put plenty of pressure on Kerala Blasters, who also had a few chances of their own. However, Owen Coyle's side couldn't find a way through, which allowed Kerala to seal their place in this season's final.
On that note, here are the player ratings from the match:
Kerala Blasters
Prabhsukhan Gill - 7/10
Barring a moment of clumsiness in the first half, Gill was safe with his handling and did well under pressure from Jamshedpur FC, making four saves.
Sandeep Singh - 6.5/10
Sandeep Singh didn't do much going forward but came up big defensively for Kerala Blasters. He recorded three tackles, three interceptions and a clearance.
Marko Leskovic - 7/10
Leskovic was constantly in position to snuff out the danger and helped his side limit Jamshedpur FC to only a few clear-cut chances. He won seven duels and recorded five clearances in yet another solid performance.
Ruivah Hormipam - 6/10
Hormipam wasn't at his best and committed a couple of silly fouls in dangerous areas in the second half. He bucked up towards the end though to help Kerala Blasters see out the result.
Harmanjot Khabra - 7/10
Khabra used all of his experience to keep Ritwik Das in check barring a few moments where the winger escaped him. He made four interceptions and two tackles and covered plenty of ground late on to help his side seal the win.
Adrian Luna - 8/10
Luna was at his mesmerizing best and his goal proved why he's currently one of the best dribblers and finishers in the ISL. He drove at the Jamshedpur FC defense before curling a right-footed finish into the bottom corner.
The Spaniard also laid out two key passes, made three tackles and notched up an interception in an all-round excellent display. Luna is Kerala's man for the big occasions and will be their talisman in the final too.
Lalthathanga Khawlhring - 6/10
Khawlhring didn't have the greatest of games and the match seemed to bypass him at times.
Ayush Adhikari - 6/10
Adhikari did well in defensive midfield and even charged forward for Kerala Blasters when he got the chance. He forced a good block from Hartley, won all three of his aerial duels and made a clearance.
Nishu Kumar - 5.5/10
Kumar worked hard but managed to complete just five of his 13 passes before being taken off early in the second half.
Jorge Pereyra Diaz - 7.5/10
Pereyra Diaz's incredible work-rate is Kerala Blasters' biggest asset. His intense pressing almost forced a goal in the opening 10 minutes but the ball came back off the crossbar. He went on to lay out a key pass and cover plenty of ground to open up space for his teammates in a fantastic display.
Alvaro Vazquez - 6/10
Although he got the assist for Luna's goal, it was a disappointing display from Vazquez. He missed a golden one-on-one chance in the second minute, lobbing wide after being put through by Diaz. Vazquez wasted another chance in the second half, hitting the ball at a comfortable height for TP Rehenesh with another attempted lob.
The forward also struggled to keep himself onside to collect balls over the top of the Jamshedpur FC defense.
Substitutes
Jeakson Singh - 5.5/10
Jeakson Singh replaced Adhikari in the 54th minute. He got booked just three minutes after coming on and also gave the ball away on a couple of occasions.
Rahul KP - 6/10
Rahul came on for Nishu Kumar in the 54th minute. He was energetic upfront and got a shot on target.
Vincy Barretto - N/A
Barretto replaced Vazquez in injury-time. He didn't have much to do but helped Kerala Blasters hold on to the ball in the dying moments.
