Here is the PTI report about JCT’s match with Vasco

Newly promoted Vasco held JCT to a goalless draw in a listless second round match of the ONGC I-League at Nehru stadium here today.
The match never rose to great heights as both the teams lacked creativity besides wasting the scoring chances that came their way.

JCT, who had more of the exchanges and scoring chances, failed to make the finishing touches with rival keeper Laxmikant Kattimani coming to his side’s rescue on a couple of occasions.

Visiting coach Sukhwinder Singh was, however, satisfied at his team’s performance although they could not collect full points.

“Collecting four points from two away matches is a satisfying result,” he said.

JCT now play Mohammedan sporting at home in their next match on October 11.

The draw ensured Vasco their first point after they lost to Sporting Clube de Goa in their earlier match.

Vasco fielded all their three foreigners for the first time but did not create much of an impact as they failed to click as a team. Their midfield made lots of errors, allowing their rivals to probe more often.

JCT, who beat defending champions Dempo in their earlier match, had at least three chances in the first half but Vasco keeper Laxmikant denied Eduardo Silva from scoring twice.
