The Nigerian player Justin Emmanuel’s goal gave Blasters the upper hand in the match. The player who came to Blasters camp in the pre-season has welcomed with double goals. Jackson Singh, Nihal Sudheesh and Mohammad Ajsal are the other players who scored goals for the team.
The match between Kerala Blasters FC and Kovalam FC took place at the Panampilly Nagar ground in Ernakulam. Blasters were leading 1-0 in the first half. The team took the lead with a goal scored by Jackson. Justin then extended the lead with a double. Young Malayali actors Nihal and Ajsal completed the list.
A brilliant performance by the forward line gives great hope to the team. The fact that they didn’t concede a single goal in the two pre-season training matches is a confidence boost for the defense as well. Both the matches prove that the changes made by the club after the last ISL season are positive.
Justin is coming to Blasters’ pre-season camp as part of the new strategy in recruiting foreign stars. Earlier, foreign players above 30 years of age are brought to Blasters club. But in the case of Justin, the strategy was changed. The 20-year-old’s recruitment was a clear sign. It is now proving to be successful.
Earlier, in the first match of the pre-season, the Blasters won the match against Maharajas College by eight goals without reply. Kerala Blasters scored 4 goals in the first half. Scored 4 more goals in the second half. The team had a big experiment in the match by fielding two different teams in both halves.
Blasters have already started preparations for the new season in mid-July. The defense was mainly strengthened. After letting go of superstar Sahal Abdul Samad, Blasters have brought many new players to the club. The team, which reached the playoffs in the last two ISLs under the coaching of Ivan Vukomanovic, is trying hard to secure the title this time.
