Both the goals were scored in the second-half.

Striker I M Vijayan, who was introduced in the second-half in place of Hardip Gill, put JCT ahead in the 43rd minute, converting a long pass from Tarnjit.

Sunday Seah scored the equaliser for Salgaocar in the 73rd minute following a flag-kick from Dharamjit Singh just outside the box.

Both teams made several excellent moves, but failed to convert the many chances that came their way.
