Bengaluru 0-0 Hyderabad: A drab encounter ends in stalemate

Bengaluru and Hyderabad played out a goalless draw in an Indian Super League (ISL) clash on Saturday at the Fatorda Stadium, Goa.

Manuel Marquez made two changes in the Hyderabad line-up which defeated Odisha in their opening match. Chinglensana Singh and Joel Chianese repaced Mohammad Yasir and Hitesh Sharma. Carles Cuadrat, on the other end, fielded an unchanged Bengaluru side which managed a 2-2 draw against FC Goa in their first match.

The match got off to a cagey start as both teams adopted a safety-first approach. Hyderabad had more ball possession but they failed to break the defensive solidity of Bengaluru FC.
