ATK's first win at home
An exciting game comes to an end. What has been a brilliant game of football between these two big teams. ATK will be very happy finally winning a game at their home turf. They were struggling to score this season at their home but they managed to win it today. ATK's keeper was superb as he kept them in the game for most of the match. Carlos Salom did have some good chances but could not covert it. While Chennaiyin FC's worst start continues. They were in the game for most part but could not find that equaliser goal they needed to draw the game. ATK climb up to 4th position while Chennayin are placed in 9th position.

Surging ball
Another darting ball inside the box but no one in the blue shirt to tap it in. Orlandi from the left puts in a perfect ball across the face of goal. Low and hard. Nobody at the receiving end to slot it home.

CHANCE!
That could have so easily been the equalizer for Chennai. John Johnson with a miss hit from inside the box and Carlos Salom pounces on it. He goes for goal himself but drags his shot wide.
52'
Free kick
Chennai win a free kick on the right. Isaac looks to slide one in but just doesn't put enough pace on it. It is cleared away easily by the ATK defense.
46'
Second half
We are back for the second half. Chennai get us underway this time round.
Exciting first half
It was an entertaining first half between these two teams. ATK started the brighter of the teams scoring two under 14 minutes. Uche gave them a brilliant start scoring his first goal for the club. ATK scored the second within minutes after the first goal with John Johnson scoring a good header to make it 2-0 for the home team. But Chennaiyin did bounce back with a bullet of header from Salom to reduce the deficit to one. Both the teams have created quite a few chances and would like to do so in the second half as well. Do join us for the exciting second half.

Another save!
A cute free kick from ATK. Straight from the training ground. He plays a forward pass along the turf on the left to Balwant Singh. The striker tuns and has a shot at goal with his left but Karanjit Singh makes himself look big as the ball hits him on the chest. Brave keeping.
36'
No one to tap it
Once again Chennai build from the back. Orlandi on the left then plays an early low drill across the face of goal. He looks to find Thapa who dives but cannot get any stud to it. The ball evades everyone and goes out of danger.

Almost!
ATK on the attack again. Lanzarote drops his shoulder and frees Aiborlang Khongjee on the right. The full back drills one in at the far post to Komal Thatal. The winger can't connect with his shot well and Thoi Singh stands in front of him and blocks it.
27'
Yellow
Pronay Halder gets away with one. He brings down Raphael Augusto ahead of the half and the ref blows to the whistle. Pronay goes to the ref and pleads to him to keep the card in his pocket. The ref has nothing to do and puts his name in the book.

GOAL!
Chennai have a goal back! It's all happening here. Chennai kept passing the ball well and now get their reward. Francisco does ever so well on the right to get past Balwant and then puts in an inch perfect cross to the near post. Carlos Salom gets in front of John Johnson and guides his header past Bhattacharja. We have a game on our hands.

GOAL!
They have their 2-goal lead! Once again it is Lanzarote at the heart of things. Floats in a lovely ball from this free kick which is just outside the box. John Johnson at the far post, leaps high after being unmarked and heads it past Karanjit at the far post. Generates good power and Karanjit cannot stop it after the dive. That's goal number 50 of the ISL.

SAVE!
WHAT. A. SAVE! ATK almost double their lead. Lanzarote threads in a lovely through ball from the left inside the box to Uche. The latter looks to hit it past the keeper but Karanjit stands tall and makes a very good save. Chennai get away with one.
3'
GOAL!
ATK have an early goal! They score at home and Kalu Uche opens his account for his new club. Karanjit takes a goal kick and it is cleared away by Gerson Vieira with his head. Too much space at the back and Uche finds himself free. Takes a touch and slots it past the keeper to the right to give his team the lead. Fastest goal of this season's ISL.

First attempt
Raphael Augusto makes some room for himself down the center. He moves the ball to his left and tries to fire one in the top corner. Is out of balance doing so and skies one over the bar.

Hello!
And welcome for Match 19. This evening's contest is a rather interesting one. Two teams, quality teams, who have been struggling in the competition so far will face off against each other. ATK need to improve their form at home, as they haven't bagged a single point out of the possible 6 till now. All their goals have been away from home too, so they need to turn it around and Manuel Lanzarote will be the man in the limelight for that. He's had a hand in all of ATK's goals and he'll look to continue with that now. Chennaiyin, share a worse fate. The defending champs haven't won a game out of the 4 they've played. A lack of killer instinct in front of goal is their biggest issue. They have the players to do the job, just have to find their rhythm. Let's see how it all unfolds.
