Chennaiyin started the match with positive intent but it was FC Goa, who opened the scoring through a precise volley by Boris Singh on the pass of Jay Gupta from the left flank. The away team continued putting pressure on Chennaiyin and soon increased their lead when Rowllin Borges took a shot from outside the 18-yard box and successfully sent the ball into the back of the net.

The second half saw Owen Coyle’s men coming out all guns blazing and stitching a string of neat passes before Vincy Barretto (58th minute) took a shot from the centre of the box that narrowly missed the post.
