Milos Drincic had missed the last three matches with a suspension and the Kerala Blasters centre-back made his return a memorable one, scoring the winner against Hyderabad FC in the ISL at the Nehru Stadium on Saturday.
It was a match Vukomanovic’s boys dominated and the 1-0 victory carried them to the top of the 12-team table with 16 points while former champion Hyderabad continued to languish in the 11th spot (three points).
The goal move began with a corner and Japanese Daisuke Sakai, who had been very active on the right flank, and Adrian Luna had a hand in it and the latter sent a low cross into the box to Drincic which the Montenegro defender sent home with a neat shot from close in the 41st minute.
