7:14 PM IST: What happened so far?

In Jamshedpur's first match against Odisha FC, the man of the match Farukh Choudhary forced an own goal off Rana Gharami in the 17th minute, but Aridane Santana produced a sublime volley to equalised after Bikash Jairu was sent off for a sliding tackle on ever-impressive Jerry Mawhmingthanga. Despite one man down, Jamshedpur dominated the proceedings at JRD Tata Sports Complex. Tireless Sergio Castel then scored the winner five minutes from the regulation time.

For Hyderabad, it was not the start they had expected. A 0-5 thrashing by ATK.

Some of the Hyderabad players even forgot to run, chase the ball. Poor effort from the debutants.
