After a goalless first half, substitute striker Brendan McElholm scored in the 63rd minute from a corner to put Orient ahead. The Indians restored parity in the 79th minute, when star striker I M Vijayan shot home from outside the box. Incidentally, Vijayan also came in as substitute. India had more scoring opportunities but poor finishing was their undoing.
