FULL TIME! U Mumba 34-33 Puneri Paltan

U Mumba have exacted revenge over their neighbours and how! What a humdinger of a match we have been treated to! The game ebbed and flowed, with the lead changing hands constantly and in the end, it is U Mumba who edge past the Paltan by just a solitary point. It all went right down to the last raid, a do-or-die one for U Mumba and it was Ashish who delivered the goods for his side, helping them win the contest but a margin of just one point. A win that will do a world of good to U Mumba's confidence and they will certainly be pleased to have gotten this one under their belt over the table-toppers. As for Pune, it is just a minor speed bump in what has been a smooth ride and they will be hoping to get back to winning ways in their next game. 

40' U MUMBA WIN! Ashish has delivered! Do-or-die raid for U Mumba and Ashish seemed to be in a bit of trouble as he was running out of time! With just ten seconds left for the raid, Abinesh Nadarajan runs around for an advance block but Ashish turns and escapes to the mid-line! Whew!

HALF TIME! U Mumba 15-15 Puneri Paltan

Nothing to separate the two sides at the stroke of half time. The contest has been played more on the slower side as both sides have relied on their defences. U Mumba had a chance to inflict the all out early but a plethora of mistakes from them allowed Pune to delay it constantly. In the end, finally the all-out was inflicted but not before Pune had assumed lead courtesy of a super tackle. Guman Singh doing all the damage for U Mumba on his return while the defense has been surprisingly poor in the absence of Surinder Singh. The Puneri Paltan's famed corners have nothing to show for as well. We are in for a terrific game of kabaddi certainly! Which side will finish on top? Stick round to find out!

20' Aslamm Inamdar picks up a bonus point under the nose of the right-in defender where Guman Singh was standing. Oh wait, the bonus has been revoked. No bonus granted.

And Puneri Paltan decide to review it! And it is a good review as well! Replays show the bonus was a clean one and the review is successful!

Hello and welcome to Sportskeeda's live coverage of the Pro Kabaddi League 2022 wherein Match 71 will see U Mumba and Puneri Paltan lock horns at the Shree Shiv Chhatrapati Sports Complex, Pune in what will be the second Maharastrian Derby of the season. 

Puneri Paltan had a terrific seven-match unbeaten streak going on right until they were beaten by the Tamil Thalaivas by just one point. However, in the very next contest, they faced the same opponent and exacted revenge by getting the better of the Thalaivas by just a solitary point as well in what was a closely-contested game. Pune are one of the best sides in the season and are currently first in the points table as well. The Paltan would like to hold onto their spot with a win over their neighbours here. 

U Mumba, on the other hand, were having quite a decent campaign but have seemed a little out of sorts in the last two games, facing a couple of defeats after what was a three-match winning streak. They still find themselves sixth in the points table and a win here will do them a world of good as it will ensure that they rise among the ranks. As the second half of the campaign begins for U Mumba, they will be hoping that their defense continues about its merry ways while the raiding can step up and deliver. U Mumba will be hungry for revenge after their loss to the Paltan in the reverse-fixture by a very narrow margin. 

Right then, we are in for a cracker of a contest and it promises to be an edge-of-the-seat thriller! Sit back, relax and enjoy as I, Maanas Upadhyay, take you through all that unfolds over the course of this contest!
