We can't remember how many chances, Jamshedpur's forward, Kervens Belfort failed to take. Time after time, he fluffed them much to the dismay of his teammates. At one point, it seemed like the ball would just not go in.

But the home side was persistent. They refused to throw in the towel, they couldn't afford to. Jamshedpur were eventually rewarded for their relentless determination. When it rains it pours. After failing to bury a handful of opportunities, Izu Azuka scored a well-taken brace in the 43rd and 45th minute to give his side what seemed an elusive lead.

The Nigerian forward was always around and inside the box, hoping to get a sniff at goal. When he did, he was super efficient, putting away both his chances with confidence. Both goals came courtesy some fine wing play from Jerry down the right wing.
