eight points, began their second leg cam-

only half the tournament left to play, the
defending champions need to win to stay
in the top half of the league table. Ro-

will be expected to continue in the same
vein and help his side make amends of
the inept batting performance against
CSK. Apart from Saurabh Tewary, who
hit an unbeaten half-century, none of the
other batsmen were able to capitalize on
tors and it took a superb dou-
ble save from David Soria to
prevent Angel Correa and
then Suarez from equalising.
But the 10 men could only hold

elled when Suarez controlled a
cross from substitute Mario Hermoso with
his right foot before blasting the ball into
the net with his left in the 78th minute.
