Makes for dismal reading, doesn't it?

That's how anaemic this Jamshedpur side is when it comes to scoring goals. They scored for the first time in their last game, they conceded for the first time today. It leads you to wonder how Jamshedpur can climb back into a game if they concede first.

Today, Pune weren't at their best, but they were disciplined. And while Jamshedpur certainly showed more initiative in attack today than in previous games, there were very few clear-cut chances that they fashioned. In fact, Pune could have easily added at least one more on their end.

The question remains how much progress this Jamshedpur side can make in the table by merely grinding out results and nicking in the odd goal. The team does not have players that can create opportunities.

Their unbeaten run also came to an end with the defeat today along with their clean sheet record. How do they respond?
