Kochi: Michael Chopra scored his first goal in the Hero Indian Super League as Kerala Blasters notched up their first win of the season, beating Mumbai City FC 1-0 at Jawaharlal Nehru Stadium.


Chopra scored in the 58th minute, curiously Kerala’s first in this edition as the inaugural ISL year finalists finally managed to get their campaign back on track and hand Mumbai City FC their first defeat after four matches.


Kerala Blasters now have four points from four matches while Mumbai City have seven points.

Mumbai City were surprisingly subdued and could never really enforce themselves. It was Chopra who got closest to breaking the deadlock in the 45th minute when his low grounder after a superb long ball from Josue Prieto was kept away by the fingertips of Netto.
