East Bengal show spirit but remain clueless in the final third

When Owen Coyle returned to his hotel room in Goa after a puzzling Indian Super League (ISL) game against East Bengal, he would have still been wondering how his team hadn't managed to get three points against a team that played with 10 men for over an hour.

It was a match which Jamshedpur could and should have won. Even with 11 men on the pitch, Jamshedpur looked superior as a team but they were a tad too confident once the referee gave Eugeneson Lyngdoh his marching orders in the 25th minute.

The referee decided to spoil the party when he produced a second yellow to Lyngdoh for a challenge in which he had made contact with the ball first.
