Farukh Choudhary's inaugural goal of the season was the linchpin in Chennaiyin FC's razor-thin 1-0 triumph over SC Delhi, orchestrated at the Jawaharlal Nehru Stadium on Friday. The home team exhibited a proactive approach, dominantly encasing Delhi in their own half.
Alberto Noguera's early attempt was blocked, while Mohammed Ali Bemammer challenged the goalkeeper from afar. Meanwhile, Daniel Chima Chukwu faced a thwarting one-on-one denial. The deadlock was finally broken in the 11th minute with Noguera's deft reverse pass finding Choudhary, whose brilliant strike from a confined angle secured the Marina Machans a lead, doubling as a heartfelt tribute to the injured Elsinho.
Maintaining their aggressive posture, Chennaiyin FC continuously tried to bolster their lead, with substitute Imran Khan nearly capitalizing on a high-pressed ball acquisition and Mohammad Nawaz's effective goalkeeping underlined Delhi's sparse chances. The victory heralded a strategically managed endgame, as Chennaiyin held possession efficiently to clinch full points.
