Ajaraie does it again. Poor defending from Odisha with a men out of position behind the backline and that ensures Ajaraie is not off side on the left edge of the box from where he just takes too touches to smash the ball past Amrinder Singh to get his second. Odisha have been poor and are lucky that they have conceded just twice this evening.
