Joy for the hosts
What a comeback this has been from Hyderabad FC. They were down and out throughout the game courtesy a Sunil Chhetri magic earlier in the game. The second half saw the hosts getting more chances but they were unable to convert it until the stoppage TIME when Robin Singh who had come as a substitute, scored a terrific goal to level the scores. It did not look like it will end this way but the hosts believed and they have managed to get their first draw of the season. Hyderabad FC had only 3 goals on target but when it mattered, they converted. The visitors will be disappointed with their performance though. They had a chance to go to the top of the table but squandered the opportunity as they allowed the hosts to score at the last moment.The hosts remain last while the visitors move to second on the table.
