The Blasters had the first chance of the second session, when an Ishfaq Ahmed cross from the right was put wide by Mohammed Rafi. Then the Dynamos took over with Richard Gadze first scoring from an offside position in the 55th minute, but only a minute later Delhi went ahead when Gadze charged at Sandip Nandy, who lost the ball to the Ghanian, who squared it to Kean Lewis and he made a clever finish to give the Delhi Dynamos the lead.
On the hour mark, Delhi Dynamos doubled their lead when marquee Florent Malouda found Marcelinho and he banged the ball into the net. The second goal broke the Kerala Blasters morale, while the Dynamos could have added a third but it remained 2-0 for the hosts until the final whistle.
