Daniel Chima Chukwu: Farukh Choudhary and Daniel Chima Chukwu found the net as Chennaiyin FC came from a goal down in style to beat Odisha FC, 3-2, in their opening match of the Indian Super League 2024-25 at the Kalinga Stadium on Saturday.

Owen Coyle’s men thus broke the Juggernauts’ 569-day long unbeaten streak at their home in dominating fashion, courtesy of a brace from Farukh (48’, 51’) and a powerful strike from Chima (69’).

An electrifying start at the Kalinga saw Samik Mitra thwart the hosts away with an early save. Shortly after, Farukh Choudhary’s appeals for a spot-kick were waved off by the referee, who subsequently pointed to the spot at the other end when Hugo Boumous went down under a soft challenge from Samik. Diego Mauricio scored from the spot to give Odisha the lead.
