ISL-4: Iain Hume hattrick wins it for Kerala Blasters at Delhi Dynamos!

The Kerala Blasters rode on a hattrick of striker Iain Hume to win 3-1 against the Delhi Dynamos at the Jawaharlal Nehru Stadium in New Delhi on Wednesday night.

After Lallianzuala Chhangte put an early Dynamos chance wide, it was Canadian striker Iain Hume who gave the guests from Kerala a 12th minute lead. Thereafter the hosts from the capital went in search for the equaliser but only got the goal on the stroke of half-time as a Romeo Fernandes free-kick was touched by Pritam Kotal’s head. At the break it was 1-1.

The Delhi Dynamos had chances at the start of the second session to go ahead, but Iain Hume with a double strike in the 78th and 83rd minutes sealed the game and the three points for the Kerala Blasters, who scored their first away win of ISL-4 while the dismal campaign of the Delhi Dynamos continued.
