With the game evenly poised and nine minutes left on the clock, Deepak Hooda stepped up for a do-or-die raid. Three men stood in the opposition half and it was always going to be a herculean task.

What seemed inevitable turned into the magical within seconds. Pune's captain was all but tackled by the Thalaivas defenders. All three of them pounced on Hooda who somehow stood his ground before weaving his way back into his own half.

Deepak had no right to make it, the odds were stacked heavily against him. Unbelievably shrugged off all three defenders with sheer power. At the end of it all, he inflicted an all out, executing a monster 5-point raid.
