Bengaluru, however, took the lead in the 8^th minute. Wing-back Roshan Singh dribbled past two defenders and rushed into the penalty box and squared a ball to Javi Martinez. While the Spaniard’s shot went straight into the fumbling hands of the Sreenidi goalkeeper Aryan Lamba, the rebound fell in the way of Bengaluru strikers and finally, it was smashed into the back of the net by Javi Martinez himself.

The Hyderabad side levelled the score in the 22^nd minute. Afghan international Faysal Shahesteh received the ball at the edge of the penalty box from teammate Ankira and scored with a fine placement at the far post. The ball took a slight deflection off a defender before leaving National Team regular Gurpreet Singh Sandhu under the bar totally bewildered.

Sreenidhi Deccan FC were good to watch whenever they launched. The second half was eventful, with both teams trying to break the deadlock. During the closing stages, Sunil Chhetri had an opportunity, but his header was off the mark. Both teams have two more matches to play in the four-team group. Hero I-League Champions RoundGlass Punjab FC and Hero Indian Super League heavyweights, Kerala Blasters FC, are the two other teams in the group.
