In a commanding display of skill and determination, Jamshedpur FC secured a resounding 4-0 victory over Punjab FC, showcasing the undeniable prowess of the Men of Steel. Daniel Chima opened the scoring with an early goal, followed by an impressive second-half performance highlighted by a set-piece brace from Jeremy Manzorro.
Following the exhilarating win, head coach Khalid Jamil addressed the media, emphasizing the team’s focused approach to each match rather than speculating about playoff aspirations. Despite climbing to sixth position in the ISL points table, Jamil remained grounded, stating, “We go match by match. We have not won at our home ground, and we’re thinking about that for now.”
Reflecting on the game, Jamil commended his team’s relentless effort and highlighted pivotal moments that shifted the momentum in their favor. He credited an early goal, a crucial penalty save by goalkeeper Rehenesh, and Manzorro’s exceptional free-kick goals as key factors contributing to their victory.
Assessing the performance of left-back Muhammed Uvais, Jamil acknowledged the player’s progress and potential while stressing the importance of continued hard work. Despite Uvais’ promising display, he was substituted due to a yellow card, underscoring the coach’s attention to detail and tactical considerations.
Providing injury updates, Jamil revealed that Alen Stevanovic has returned from injury, adding depth to the squad with his versatility. However, Ritwik Das is sidelined for the season, while Komal Thatal is expected to return in one or two matches after recovering from injury.
As Jamshedpur FC looks ahead to future challenges, including a tough upcoming fixture at home, Jamil remains focused on maximizing the team’s performance in each match. With a balanced blend of seasoned veterans and promising talents, the Men of Steel aim to maintain their momentum and climb higher in the ISL standings, one match at a time.
