ISL 2015: Delhi Dynamos 3-3 Kerala Blasters- 5 Talking Points
Kerala Blasters bowed out of the Indian Super League after playing out a highly entertaining and eventful 3-3 draw at the Jawaharlal Nehru Stadium, Delhi; home to the Delhi Dynamos.The home side were sent ahead by Andre Dos Santos, but the visitors turned the game on its head through goals from Chris Dagnall and Jaoa Coimbra. Antonio German then put Kerala firmly in the drivers’ seat giving them a solid 2 goal lead only to be cancelled out a minute later by Dynamos’ forward Adil Nabi.But it was midfielder Sehnaj Singh on whom the spotlight shone, equalising with a thunderous strike very late in added time for Delhi.Here are the major talking points from number 53 of the Hero Indian Super League.
#1 Sehnaj strikes right at the death
Delhi Dynamos’ Sehnaj Singh stole the show with an equaliser, right at the very end in spectacular fashion. The Lions looked like they were heading for a defeat when the 22-year old made headlines with a screamer.
Roberto Carlos’ men were looking rather tired and a bit jaded towards the end of the 90 minutes having given it their all. Deep into added time, John Arne Riise squared the ball to Sehnaj who hit it firmly from 30 yards out giving keeper Sandip Nandy no chance.
Sehnaj Singh formerly of Mohun Bagan in the I-League had a night to remember, scoring his first and arguably one of the best goals of the ISL this season.
Delhi’s number 26 who likes to play at the centre of park as a box to box midfielder will be definitely in Roberto Carlos’ plans when he prepares for the oncoming semi-final playoffs in a week’s time.
