Not much action in the last ten minutes except for a solitary offensive action from newly subbed in Irfan Yadwad. He immediately joins the attack and plays a wall pass with Elsinho before taking a shy at the goal. The attempt is deflected for a corner which does not yield any result. Chennaiyin keep looking for their opener.
A big blow for Chennaiyin FC as Chima Chukwu gets injured and had to be subbed out from the game. Irfan Yadwad comes in as a substitute player. Chennaiyin FC continues to build pressure as Faruq Choudhary takes a snapshot which gets saved by goalkeeper Hrithik Tiwari. Both teams keep looking for an early goal.
Some end to end action in the first ten minutes. FC Goa retain most of the possession and use the flanks to create some attacking momentum. Brison Fernandes carried a ball from the left side and his low drive was saved by goalkeeper Nawaz. Right winger Udanta Singh also found himself in space and his cross was blocked. Chennaiyin responded with Chima Chukwu flicking a ball in the path of Maheson, whose shot narrowly went wide.
The match is underway. Chennaiyin FC are in their home blue kit and are attacking from right to left. FC Goa are in their away white kit and are building up from left to right. FC Goa start the game with a long free kock of Muhammad Yasir which is caught by Mohammad Nawaz.
