Goalkeeper Kristof Van Hout and defender Shouvik Ghosh however saved the day with the former getting a hand on Stephen Pearson&#39;s cutback and Ghosh nipping in to clear.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n<p><span style=\"font-size:14px\"><span style=\"font-family:arial\">The lanky Belgian custodian rescued his team again, making a save at full stretch after Andrew Barisic&#39;s cross rebounded off defender Adil Khan, with Iain Hume&#39;s follow-up header hitting the outside of the post.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n<p><span style=\"font-size:14px\"><span style=\"font-family:arial\">Kerala were dominant by this point, and even had the ball in the net through Barisic, but it was ruled out for an offside.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n<p><span style=\"font-size:14px\"><span style=\"font-family:arial\">The Dynamos weathered the storm and began to see more of the ball.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n<p><span style=\"font-size:14px\"><span style=\"font-family:arial\">They soon had a chance of their own, with Mads Junker firing a point-blank header directly at Kerala keeper David James.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n<p><span style=\"font-size:14px\"><span style=\"font-family:arial\">The game became more end-to-end, but the half ended scoreless.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n<p><span style=\"font-size:14px\"><span style=\"font-family:arial\">The second half started with the teams trading possession.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n<p><span style=\"font-size:14px\"><span style=\"font-family:arial\">Delhi came closest to scoring, with Italian World Cupper Alessandro Del Piero&#39;s glancing header sending Robert Lalthamuana through on goal, but while his chip beat keeper James, it was well wide of the post.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n<p><span style=\"font-size:14px\"><span style=\"font-family:arial\">The visitors nearly snatched the winner when substitute Pavel Elias had a free header from a corner, but his try went wide.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n<p><span style=\"font-size:14px\"><span style=\"font-family:arial\">One point each means both Kerala and Delhi finished the day as they started, in sixth and seventh place respectively.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\r\n",
