FC Goa VS Chennaiyin

Midfielder Noah Wail Sadaoui first assisted Redeem Tlang in the 10th minute and then added the second goal in the injury time to earn all three points for FC Goa. This is the second win for the Gaurs this season in as many games.

While both the teams started quite aggressively, sharing almost equal possession, it was FC Goa who took their own to take an early lead. Winger Tlang gave the visitors an advantage when he headed a Sadaoui cross perfectly into the bottom right corner

Chennaiyin, however, kept pushing and created several goal-scoring opportunities but couldn’t find the back of the net. One such breathtaking moment came in the 20th minute when Prasanth carried the ball on the right wing and gave it to Rahim Ali inside the box. FC Goa’s goalkeeper Dheeraj Moirangthem, however, pushed Rahim’s shot away onto the crossbar before it rebounded and fell to Petar Sliskovic, whose volley was once again saved by the goalie.

The Moroccan footballer Sadaoui took the game further away from the hosts when he smashed the second goal for Goa in injury time.

Talking about missing chances, Chennaiyin head coach Thomas Brdaric remarked, “We couldn’t mark the players. Lack of concentration in the beginning, but it was a good bounce back then we didn’t have the luck scoring. We have to improve next time. Football is decided in the box and today we were not able to score in the box. We need to be effective.”

Chennaiyin FC will now travel to Kolkata for an away game against East Bengal on November 4, while the Gaurs will take on Hyderabad FC on October 29.
