Bedia Misses

We are back!!!!

46' Somehow, somehow, only Bedia knows how, the ball has dropped on to the crossbar when anything else could’ve happened!! Brilliant play and from the edge of the box, he takes his shot.

Scoro Scores

48' SCOROMINAS!!!!! Boumous shoots at Chennaiyin’s goal from a quick release, and Karanjit saves. Off the rebound, Corominas scorominas. Goa 1-0 CFC

Chennai Will Get Back

One nil. Game on. Or rather game off. Because Chennaiyin aren’t exactly the team that come back into a game. But this could get exciting.

Augusto Levels for Chennai

53' Chennaiyin have levelled. And how. A quickly taken free kick. Smartly played wide, slight deflection. Raphael Augusto levels. That's how they had to do it and they have!! This is now erm, game on.

Technical Glitch

Apologies if you have not been getting our updates. We have been having some Internet trouble.

Goa Score Again through Brandon

63’ And we have our first goal on the projector!!!! Brandon scores!! Goa have the lead again, 2-1. Coro plays an absolute peach of a ball to him and Brandon squeezes it in superbly under Karanjit, beating Mailson to the punch. What a goal to take the lead from.

Thoi in for Francis

Chennaiyin make a substitution. Thoi comes on for, Francis, who has been a bit invisible it must be said.

Goan Gossip

Arjun Pandit gives us a valuable bit of gossip, saying FC Goa haven’t been able to tie Corominas to a long contract yet. Based on his performance in the Super Cup, they should throw the bank at him.

Brandon's First Touch Fails Him

72’ Brandon Fernandes is played on, buy another brilliant through ball and to run through easily, but his first touch takes him too wide, and Mailson clears it away.

Scary Stuff

Arjun says, he was scared off the ball. And it's hard to argue. He could’ve put his ball on the line.

Erratic Passing by Chennaiyin

74' Goa have really come into the game. But they are also leaving open spaces at the back for Chennaiyin to capitalise. Which they cant because their passing is erratic.

Coro's Shot Saved

76’ Some brilliant one-two between Coro and Edu Bedia gives Bedia a chance to shoot, he opens his body up looking to curl it to the far post, but too close to Karanjit.

Goa Should Chill Now

77’ If Goa have any wherewithal they should just pass this game out. Seriously. Just relax. Pass, and play.

Where is Jeje?

80’ Vineeth is caught offside. He is known to score late goals, and this makes Gregory’s job very tough. He has to change something. Jeje?

Goal But No Goal

83’ The ball ends up in the back of the Goa goal. But the ref has pulled it back for a foul. No luck.

Possible Goan Street Party Tonight...

84’ The last time Goa won a football title it was in 2012-13, when a young Sunil Chhetri came back from a Sporting Lisbon loan to take them to the title. The streets were celebrating that I-League title. And if these boys can hold on for the next six minutes (and added time), then there’s a party on in Goa tonight.

Goan Parties

85’ There’s a party on in Goa every night. Several in fact.

Goa Want More Goals

86’ Goa have decided that he best form of defence is attack. And they are taking it so seriously that Chennaiyin are finding it difficult to get out of their own half right now.

Krouch on for Boumous

87’ Goa substitution. Boumous off and Krouch on. Boumous has put in a superb shift today. Bedia has been preferred over him most of the season, but when he’s had a chance he’s grabbed it. Good play.

Six Extra Minutes...

SIX MINUTES OF INJURY TIME! Goa must be sweating!!
