What has been a firmly established fact in Season 5 seemed like a myth on Friday. Puneri Paltan are a side known to be miserly in defense and a major part of their success this season can be attributed to their defenders grinding it out.

However, against the Thalaivas, Pune were extremely impatient at the back. On multiple occasions, they dived in for unnecessary tackles and gifted their opponents cheap points. Impatience plagued every single Pune player.

All of them seemed hungry but had their priorities were in the wrong place. The Thalaivas raiders found it extremely easy in the first half as they kept chipping away. Pune though ultimately turned it around in the second half.
