They were beaten in the first leg of the league stage and managed a 1-1 draw in front of the home crowd in the return leg. On Thursday, Khalid Jamil’s Jamshedpur FC lit up JRD Tata Sports Complex with skipper Javi Hernandez scoring a later winner in the 2-1 win against Mohun Bagan Super Giant in the first leg of their Indian Super League semifinal.
Jose Molina’s Shield winners went in as the favourites on the day, especially with Jamshedpur’s disappointing season at home. But Jamil and his men came out on top showing grit and rigour, with Javier Siverio getting them the opener in the 24th minute.
