For large parts of the game, Jamshedpur FC were able to keep the home side at bay courtesy some sturdy defending at the back. Case in point, their centre-back, Andre Bikey who was super attentive.

The Cameroonian not only kept Jeje quiet but also gave a hard time to Chennai's midfielders. He wasn't afraid of coming out of his area and press the opposition players outside the box. As a result, the visitors had to resort to orchestrating their attack from the wings, most of the time.

Bikey was solid but he was always on edge. His interceptions were last ditch and his tackles bordered between dangerous and accurately timed. He was cautioned by the official on more than one occasions but that didn't deter his aggressive approach.
