Cesar Ferrando made wholesome changes to his starting line-up from the last match with the club's marquee signing, Tim Cahill making his much-awaited debut. Subhashish Roy Chowdhury was given the custodian duties while another new boy, Mario Arques guarded the midfield along with Memo Moura.

Jamshedpur FC started dominating from the get-go and were creating chances aplenty. Winger Carlos Calvo was in the thick of things and tested the Mostoles Balompie goalkeeper as early as in the 14th minute. He then delivered a cross to Cahill who headed it straight at the goalkeeper.
