Thereafter, taking time to settle, Pune FC found Moga to be a headache  when he pushed forward.<\/p>\n<p> With Caitano Costa and Chika constantly under threat, the prolonged  midfield play both teams engaged themselves in saw 25 minutes of play  consumed. During this period, Pune FC created their best chance when  Izumi Arata, dug in a left footer from within the penalty-box into a  melee of defenders and found the hand of one.<\/p>\n<p> While the \u2018hand\u2019 went unnoticed and play continued, playmaker Douhou  Pierre kept the opponents alert with defense splitting through balls.<\/p>\n<p> At the other end, Sporting\u2019s Moga went down to a determined Chika  defensive shield on the edge of the box, which ended in the referee  awarding a penalty-kick and much to the dismay of the home side. Kalu  Ogba stepped up to find the net off the vertical.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 <\/p>\n<p> Pune FC used their flanks well to construct moves and often had Lester  Fernandez and Venkatesh Shanmugam keep the opponents on the move.<\/p>\n<p> Nearing the end of the first half, Pune FC went deep with Douhou on the  right wing and cut into the box only to be brought down by defender  Bisheshwor Singh, but yet had the referee cancel their appeal for the  foul.<\/p>\n<p> In the second half, Pune FC had Arata head into the hands of the  \u2018keeper, before Jeje had a half attempt to show their intentions. At the  other end, Sporting through Moga doubled their advantage. Cutting in  from left, Moga dribbled past couple of defenders to set up Mackroy  Peixoto who&#8217;s first try from close was blocked by keeper Shahinlal, but  Freiman on hand tucked in rebound into open goal.<\/p>\n<p>Pune Fc brought in fresh legs in Srikanth Ramu, Maninder Singh  and then Subash Singh for Othallo Tabia, Venkatesh and Lester and with  it brought in the needed thrust. Attacks came at will and in one such  move initiated by Gurjinder Kumar on the left, the unmarked Jeje did  well to loop his header over the keeper from inside the box.<\/p>\n<p> Giving it all that they could, Pune FC forced three corners three  minutes after pulling a goal back. With Subash Singh forcing a move,  Pune earned their first corner, which led to another when Chika\u2019s full  blooded try got tipped over by the keeper.<\/p>\n<p> Off the third, Pune FC leveled scores. The corner taken indirectly saw  dohou passes to Srikanth, who cut past a defender to crosses to an  unmarked Chika positioned inside the box. Chika utalising the  opportunity of being unmarked headed over the keeper to make amends for  the penalty he conceded earlier.<\/p>\n<p> Subash almost got Puen FC the winner, but unfortunately his try from close deflecte off the keeper for a corner.<\/p>\n<p> After the game, Pune FC coach expressed satisfaction with the result. He  said \u201cWe created chances and we had two situations \u2013 the hand ball and  the tackle inside the box go against us. But barring that and a result  that could be different, it was a game where the players showed  character. The referee spoilt the game,\u201d <\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p><strong>Pune: <\/strong>Pune FC fought back from a two-goal deficit to hold  Sporting Clube de Goa in an I-League 2011-12 Round 2 encounter ridden  with decisions that forced the home side coach Derrick Pereira make note  of it.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"tdm_status":"","tdm_grid_status":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[82],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-477","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","category-football-football"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.9 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>Pune FC stage a brilliant fight back - IndianSportsNews.com - Latest Updated Sports News &amp;
