Awards
Odisha FC collect the Club Award for winning the match this evening. Marcos Tebar is given the Limitless Player of the Match Award. Aridane Santana bags the Winning Pass of the Match Award. Jerry Mawihmingthanga takes home the Emerging Player of the Match Award and Vinit Rai is the choice for the Hero of the Match Award.
A comfortable win
Odisha FC hold on for a comfortable 2-0 win. This is their second win on the trot. Unsurprisingly, both wins have come at their designated home, Bhubaneswar. After Jerry Mawihmingthanga and Vinit Rai gave the home team a 2-goal lead in the first half, the hosts were in full control of the proceedings in the second half. The visitors did match them in terms of possession but the team in black and blue were dictating the tempo of the game. The win lifts Odisha FC to 5th place, they're now within a point of the top four, while Chennaiyin FC remain in 9th spot.

Offside
Rafael Crivellaro from left flank chips it inside to find Andre Schembri. However, there is no defender behind Andre Schembri inside and hence the linesman raises the offside.
61'

46'
Play resumes
Odisha FC get us underway. No changes at the break.
Odisha FC are 2 up
At the end of the first half Odisha FC are up by 2 goals without a reply. A half of football which only came alive at the end of the 25th minute when Nerijus Valskis of Chennaiyin FC blazed over the top from the spot. Immediately after that Aridane Santana missed a sitter at the other end. However, in the 37th minute, Jerry Mawihmingthanga scored his second goal of the campaign and Odisha FC's first in this match. Four minutes later, it was Vinit Rai's thunderbolt which earned the hosts a 2-goal lead. Will Chennaiyin FC be able to stage a comeback like they did in the game against FC Goa? Stay tuned to find out.

The keeper is alert
A long ball is played to the left side of the Odisha FC box. Shubham Sarangi watches it closely and heads it back towards his keeper. His header is a bit heavy and Francisco Dorronsoro has to jump back and catch the ball.
29'
Missed
Rafael Crivellaro takes a free kick in the Odisha FC half. Francisco Dorronsoro comes off his line to punch the ball but he cannot do it cleanly. The ball takes a touch off his arm and goes out for a corner. Crivellaro takes the set-piece. The delivery is semi-cleared as the ball falls to Lucian Goian. However, he cannot hit it in the goal.
26'
Chance missed at the other end
Xisco Hernandez gets the ball on the left side close to the near post. He turns and crosses it to the far post. Aridane Santana rushes in to meet the ball but he can only sky his effort. Poor miss really.
25'
PENALTY MISSED!!!
Oh dear, Nerijus Valskis has missed the penalty. Second penalty missed this season. A golden opportunity to take the lead goes begging. A poor, poor effort from Nerijus Valskis. He takes the shot with his right foot but ends up skying it way over.
24'
Penalty
Penalty for Chennaiyin FC. Shubham Sarangi takes down Nerijus Valskis inside the box in an attempt of winning the aerial ball. The referee spots it quickly and awards a penalty. Can Chennaiyin FC take the lead?
21'
Pressure piling
Odisha FC get a free kick as Germanpreet Singh blocks Marcos Tebar as he went for a header. Xisco Hernandez takes the subsequent free kick, it is headed out for a corner by Lucian Goian. The hosts bring the ball back into the box, Anirudh Thapa regains possession for Chennaiyin FC but he can only kick it out for another corner. The corner is taken and Odisha FC have the ball in the back of the net but the referee had already blown his whistle for blocking Vishal Kaith.
15'
Cross blocked
Aridane Santana on the left finds Nandhakumar Sekar on the overlap. The winger runs into the box and crosses. Eli Sabia gets in the way of that one and clears the ball.
8'
Taking too long
Schembri is getting his inners fixed as some part of it has come out. It was taking too long though and the referee probably asked him to get it snipped off.
5'
Cool and calm start
Both the sides are keeping the ball out in the middle and not allowing the forwards to get to the ball. Also, patches are coming out of the turf as the players try to kick. Not good signs as this can be really risky.
1'
Kick off
Chennaiyin FC get us underway. Anirudh Thapa looks to play it long. No one but Francisco Dorronsoro gets to the ball.
Toss
The flip of the coin goes Odisha FC's way. Marcos Tebar chooses to kick from right to left.
National anthem
The players line up in respect of the Indian National Anthem. We are moments away from the toss.

Crucial clash!
The 53rd match of the Indian Super League sees Odisha FC take on Chennaiyin FC at the Kalinga Stadium, Bhubaneswar. Playing in their second game at Bhubaneswar, Odisha FC started a run of three home games with a win against Jamshedpur FC. They’ll hope for another win today in an attempt to qualify for the knockout stages. The Bhubaneswar-based club are 4 points off Mumbai City FC and a win here will see them reduce that deficit to 1 point. Their Spanish marksman, Aridane Santana, is the joint-third highest goalscorer with 6 goals. Him and compatriot Xisco Hernandez, have scored 10 goals between them for Odisha FC. The duo was on target in the previous match as well. With Nandhakumar Sekar and Vinit Rai delivering fine crosses from the flanks, the Spaniards can be expected to add to their tally of goals. However, Odisha FC’s head coach, Josep Gombau, will want to work on his side’s generosity from set-pieces. The hosts have shipped in 50 percent of the goals they’ve conceded from dead-ball situations. On the other hand, Chennaiyin FC have been a side re-invigorated by the appointment of Owen Coyle. In over a month, Coyle has managed to improve his side’s potency in front of goal. Their spirited second-half display in the last match against FC Goa saw them lose 4-3 after being 3 goals down at the halfway stage. Rafael Crivellaro bagged a brace in that match, with Andre Schembri also hitting the target. Nerijus Valskis is Chenniayin FC’s leading goalscorer with 5 goals to his name. Coyle has vowed to persist with his attacking philosophy. Both sides will be attempting to close the gap on the top 4 sides. Who will edge closer to the top of the pile?
