Skene: Indian Super League side Delhi Dynamos registered its first win in Sweden by coming from behind to beat Swedish Club Skene IF 2-1.
Delhi Dynamos, playing their second friendly match in Sweden as part of their pre-season training, were trailing for the majority of the match.
But the away side produced yet another resilient performance, thanks to two second half goals from midfielders Kean Lewis and Marcelo Leite to register their maiden win of the pre-season.
The match also saw the return of their Ghanaian superstar Richard Gadze and debut of Senegalese Baye Ibrahima Niasse.
Samir Nabi came close to scoring in the seventh minute of the match with a vicious strike, which was blocked by an onrushing defender.
Skene broke the deadlock in the 35th minute of the match, much against the run of play with a superb strike from their striker Oscar. As had been the story for Gianluca Zambrotta's squad during the entire pre-season, they fell behind once again and went into the break chasing the game.
The away side started off strongly after the change of ends and kept on pressing hard for the equalizer, but as luck would have it, their multiple attempts at finding the back of the net failed.
Their hard work eventually paid off as they finally scored the equaliser through their talisman Kean.
With time running out, both the teams were looking for the winning goal, but it was the visitors whose perseverance saw them go ahead in the match for the first time with their new foreign signing Marcelo Leite, curling in a wonderful free kick to beat the opposition goalkeeper.
