Play by Play: Chennaiyin FC forward line fire them to victory; Pune can't make a hattrick of wins

IT WAS A LACK LUSTROUS first half till a late surge of attacks by both teams late in the half. Augusto played the ball to Jerry, who crossed to Succi. The ball hit Succi and fell to Jeje who was unmarked and he had a simple task of heading it in from close range. The second half started slow paced. The second goal came again through Augusto playing a part. It was his cross that was played to Succi who rose as high as Eduardo ahead of him, he anticipated well to finish off a good headed goal.

Pune never threatened the Chennaiyin goal. Getting Lyngdoh and Tato too failed to create any goal scoring chances. The one point that Pune would complain about would be the handball against Mendy late in the second half that was not given. Augusto lead the charges for the home side as they earned a comfortable two goal victory after five games. He was awarded the Hero of the match.
