Jamshedpur took the lead tonight and it came out of nowhere. New signing, Wellington Priori was a thorn in Pune City's side tonight and his efforts bore fruit in the first half. Pune keeper, Vishal Kaith failed to command his area, which led to confusion between him and one of his defenders, Sahil Panwar.

The both of them clashed into each other and Wellington made the most of it. What looked like an aimless through ball proved to be pivotal. The Brazilian covered a lot of distance tonight and played the role of the dynamic midfielder to perfection.

He chased down the loose ball and calmly slotted home into an empty net with the outside of his foot. All this while Vishal and Sahil ran into each other and ended up on the floor.
