Playing hours after he was accused of allegedly being unprofessional, Sandesh Jhingan put in a thoroughly proficient performance tonight and put to bed any signs of lack of confidence that may have haunted him prior to the game.

Kerala's captain may not have had his best night as a defender, but he never let the situation get the better of him. In the second half, he injured his ankle and was seen seething in pain. Minutes later, he hobbled onto to the pitch to a rapturous welcome.

Kerala's faithful made it clear where their allegiances lie. They supported him all night long and he repaid their faith with a solid outing. The Blasters need Jhingan to be in prime health for the rest of the season. His hunger to deliver is second to none.
