Islanders on course, defending champions falter again
The misery continues for Chennaiyin FC and Mumbai City FC continue their impressive run. The hosts move to second on the table, 3 points adrift of league leaders Bengaluru FC. This win here makes this their best ever unbeaten streak in ISL till now. The hosts went into the half with their noses in front courtsey Raynier Fernandes. Chennaiyin FC came out in the second half hoping to find the equaliser but it was Mumbai City FC who once again found the back of the net, this time it was Modou Sougou who was at the right place when Rafael Bastos' shot deflected off the defender and fell kindly to Sougou. Chennaiyin FC kept pressurising the hosts' backline but to no avail. Where do Chennaiyin FC go from here? They cannot find a way to win. They had their chances but Amrinder Singh was in top form tonight and would not be beaten. Mumbai City FC are well on course to qualify for the semi-finals.

GOAALLLLLL!!!
Rafael Bastos dribbles from the half line all the way inside the box. He unleashes the shot which gets deflected by Eli Sabia. The deflection falls kindly to Modou Sougou.

Wasted chance
Following the play from the corner, Isaac Vanmalsawma who took the corner receives the ball back. He puts in another cross which finds the head of Raphael Augusto to perfection. The latter though cannot control and direct his header on goal and the ball goes off target and out for a goal kick.
47'
Wayward
Arnold Issoko from the right lobs the ball to Paulo Machado. Machado has space and time in the box but he hits it first time. The resulting shot is way off target. He should have taken a touch there and then hit the shot.
46'
Second half
Chennaiyin FC will start the second half. Will they be able to find the equaliser here?
Home side go into the lead
What a half of football we have had here in Mumbai. The game started slowly but the home side started growing in the game and found the opener in the 27th minute courtesy Raynier Fernandes. The host were so close to doubling their lead at the end of the half when Modou Sougou's effort rattled the crossbar. Chennaiyin FC need to do better here. The best chance for them fell to Carlos Salom, whose effort was saved by Amrinder Singh. Chennaiyin FC have hardly had any clear-cut chances. It's not over yet. The second half will begin shortly, be back for it.

Must do better
Raphael Augusto plays a lovely through ball from the centre on the left to find Thoi Singh. He races away and blasts a shot which goes out of play for a throw-in. Should've at least made the keeper work.

Top notch

GOAAAAALLLLLL!!!
It's the home side who draw the first blood. Raynier Fernandes has opened the scoring here in Mumbai. Rafael Bastos beats his defender on the right and squares it to Raynier Fernandes from the left who wonderfully places his shot in the bottom left corner from outside the box. Sanjiban Ghosh dives but had no chance of saving that. It was placed perfectly.

Hello everyone
And welcome to match 50 of this edition's Indian Super League. The Islanders host defending champions Chennaiyin FC. Mumbai City FC are on a 5 match unbeaten streak. This is their best run since ISL season 1. If they avoid defeat here this will become their best ever run. The hosts will be high on confidence after winning their last game against Delhi Dynamos FC. A win here for the hosts will see them go to second place on the points table. This has been a great campaign for Mumbai City FC, they have won 5 games this season so far, last season they managed to win only 7 overall. On the other hand what a disastrous campaign this has been for the defending champions. They find themselves 3rd from bottom and their chances of qualifying for the semi-final looks very bleak. If they want to have any scope of qualifying for the semis they must start winning, starting from now. They have won just 1 game so far this term and lost 7, joint most this season. This will be an interesting clash between teams facing contrasting fortunes. We have a great game in our hands. Join us in a bit for the start of the action.
