#2 Rino's injury struggles continue, but Vineeth returns
It has been a stop-start season for Kerala's Rino Anto with injuries affecting the right-back's performances and time on the pitch.
He had just come back from an hamstring injury which kept him out for a few games and today he went down again during the match in the 54th minute clutching the same area. Another muscular injury looks set to sideline Anto yet again. One only hopes that he is able to get fit enough to feature regularly for his side for the rest of the season.
While one Kerala man went down with injury and had to be taken off, another key player made his return.
CK Vineeth has not featured for the Blasters since scoring a dramatic last-minute equaliser away against Chennaiyin FC last month. But he came on at half-time here for Mark Sifneos in what will surely be a welcome sight for both Blasters fans as well as Indian football fans.
He is very good at propping up in the box to finish off even half-chances and with the Blasters adopting a rather safety-first approach under James, his return boosts the attacking ranks for Kerala as James opts to play two men up front.
