Match Events

  • 0' In just a few seconds Jawaharlal Nehru Stadium will turn into a battlefield for Chennai City FC and Shillong Lajong FC.
  • 5' The travelling Shillong Lajong FC supporters hardly appreciate their team being pressed down to the backline.
  • 10' Shillong Lajong FC seems to be on a short break. The game is mainly concentrated in the center. It’s high time they got back to action. Otherwise, it looks like a goalless game.
  • 12' GOAL! Nestor Gordillo scores on 12. Assisted by Sandro Rodriguez
  • 17' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering Chennai City FC that had 174 games and scored 63 goals.
  • 22' Phrangki Buam has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 0 appearances with only 0 goals this season.
  • 27' The referee is likely to let players tackle, as he already missed some meaty challenges during opening seconds. He is still to establish what should not be done by the players and what is acceptable on the pitch. It’s going to be a tough game for Sandro Rodriguez suffering a number of foals already.
  • 32' Time for substitution for Shillong Lajong FC. Novin Gurung is replaced by Naorem Singh.
  • 37' Although teams showed high tempo form the start, they seem to slow down a bit. Both sides really need to catch a fire. Otherwise, we have another goalless match.
  • 38' What a strike from Eslava! The score is 2-0.
  • 43' looks like a favorite considering 0 games won in last 0 matches with its main striker scoring goals.
  • 45' Eslava was booked on 45.
  • 49' Goal! Pedro Manzi scores his 23 goal in 174 matches.
  • 53' GOAL! Lalmuanpuia Samuel scores on 53.
  • 55' The supporters are chanting for Alexander Romario Jesuraj. He replaces Vijay Ponnurangam on 55 minute.
  • 60' Spectators do not have much to choose from both teams. The sides had several scoring chances but they still need a bit more than just a sight of a goal.
  • 65' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Sohktung made 198 appearances and scored 1 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
  • 66' Another change for Shillong Lajong FC made on 66 minute. Lalmuanpuia Samuel leaves to be changed by Samuel Kynshi.
