It was sweet redemption for Kerala Blasters FC's reserve team less than a month after their heart-wrenching final defeat to Hyderabad FC in the Hero Indian Super League, as the boys in yellow chalked up a 2-0 win over the same opponents in a Reliance Foundation Development League (RFDL) tie here on Saturday.

Vincy Barretto helped Kerala take the lead in the 17th minute before Hyderabad's defender Singson put the ball in his net in the 36th minute.

As many as five players who featured prominently for Kerala in the ISL this season started the game with the promising Ayush Adhikari leading the side which boasted of players like Sanjeev Stalin, Givson Singh, Bijoy V besides Barretto in their ranks. Goalkeeper Sachin Suresh, who was also part of the ISL squad under Ivan Vukomanović, started in goal for the 'home' team.

Kerala were at it from the get-go, Givson curling a free-kick over the bar inside the first minute from the edge of the box. Hyderabad FC also had the likes of Abdul Rabeeh, Abdul Anjukandan, Amritpal Singh, and keeper Lalbiakhlua Jongte from the title-winning ISL squad, and Rabeeh looked in fine form combining well with C Lalchungnunga.

But Kerala looked the sharper of the two with local boy Barretto, playing on the inside right channel initially with Mohammed Aimen up top, punching into the gaps behind the backline and keeping centre-backs Amritpal and Singson on the tenterhooks.

It looked like a matter of time before Kerala would take the lead, and Barretto latched onto an opportunity soon, running in between two defenders after being set up by Stalin to then round the keeper and slot the ball into an empty net. Hyderabad slowly started stringing a few together, Rabeeh and Lalchungnunga trying hard to unlock the Kerala defence, but an error by Singson saw Hyderabad 0-2 down at halftime.

A cross from Givson saw Singson trying to clear the ball inside the area, but to his misfortune, it came off a colleague to cane off his foot and squirm into the net.

In the second half, Hyderabad gave a better account of themselves but lacked the cutting edge as Kerala bagged all three points.
