Reigning I-League champions Inter Kashi face Jamshedpur FC in their final Super Cup outing on Saturday at the GMC Bambolim Stadium in Goa. With both sides already out of knockout contention, pride will be the main prize — and with “The Puritans” and “The Men of Steel” eager to finish on a high, fans can expect an open, entertaining contest.
Current Standings: With just one point from their first two games, Inter Kashi sit bottom of Group B, while Jamshedpur, level on points but ahead on goal difference, occupy third place.
Head-to-head Record: The upcoming fixture will be the first meeting between the teams in a competitive game.
The Puritans bounced back strongly after a poor 3-0 loss to Goa in their opener, putting on a spirited display against pre-tournament favourites NorthEast United. Fielding an all-Indian side, they struck early through Harmanpreet Singh before Karthik Panicker’s late goal earned them a deserved 2-2 draw.
Though the result wasn’t enough to keep them in the competition, considering they had no foreign players and barely a week’s preparation, it was a commendable effort — and a timely tune-up ahead of their I-League title defence.
With both sides eager to sign off with a win, the forwards will be under the spotlight. Harmanpreet Singh has already opened his account, and skipper Sumeet Passi will be keen to join the party — making him the one to watch in this clash.
Inter Kashi Probable XI - Shubham Dhas (GK) ; Mandi, Wayne Vaz, Bardwaj, Prabir Das, Haobam Singh, Karthik Panicker, Kojam Beyong, Sumeet Passi, Harmanpreet Singh.
After a thrilling 2-2 comeback against NorthEast United in their opener, Jamshedpur couldn’t replicate that fight, falling 2-0 to Goa despite some early chances. The lack of finishing cost them dearly, leaving last season’s runners-up without a win after two games. Still, with a clash against an inexperienced Inter Kashi up next, the Men of Steel will be desperate to end their campaign on a winning note — anything less would be a letdown.
Midfielder Rei Tschikawa was the standout performer for the Men of Steel against NorthEast United, setting up both goals for Messi, Bouli and Halder. With his sharp vision and creativity, he’ll once again be the key orchestrator and a major threat to Inter Kashi on Saturday.
Jamshedpur FC Probable XI - A Gomes (GK); Barla, Pratik Chowdhary, Lazar Cirkovic, Mark Zothanpuia, Rei Tschikawa, Pranoy Halder, Lalhriatpuia, M Sanan, Messi Bouli, Barretto.
On paper, Jamshedpur FC clearly have the upper hand over Inter Kashi, boasting greater experience and foreign quality. Yet, the Puritans will carry confidence from their spirited draw against NorthEast United, even if their goals came from defensive lapses. With superior firepower up front, the Men of Steel head into this clash as firm favourites to take all three points.
