In almost a carbon copy of yesterday's match between Minerva and Jamshedpur, FC Goa and ATK misplaced far too many passes. Mind you, these aren't local sides with amateur players.

Tonight FC Goa had in their ranks - Pronay Halder, Mandar Rao Dessai, Edu Bedia and Ferran Corominas. Yet for all their quality, the number of ill-judged passes doing the rounds was shocking, to say the least.

ATK, on the other hand, were equally sluggish. The likes of Robbie Keane and Zequinha entered promising areas on the pitch only to undo their good work with aimless balls across the ground.

This mediocrity resulted in ping-pong game where both sides were merely conceding possession to each other.
