Laxmikant Kattimani (8) - FC Goa keeper Kattimani shook off his nerves from earlier this season and put in a solid performance between the sticks. Kattimani made many crucial saves and ensured the point for the away side.

Seriton Fernandes (7.5) - The right-back for Goa who has played all the minutes this season was again productive on the right flank with his runs on the overlap. Seriton was stable in defence with good tackles and kept Zequinha in check.

Mohammed Ali (7) - The young centre-back alongside Pinheiro was dealing with the massive task of handling Robbie Keane who was everywhere in the attack tonight. Ali did well with good interceptions and stability on the ball.

Bruno Pinheiro (7) - The Portuguese defender provided Goa much-needed stability in the defence although he was sometimes reckless with his tackles when caught on the counter.

Narayan Das (7.5) - Narayan Das troubled the ATK defence throughout the game, especially Prabir Das in the first half. Das was on the move constantly with his overlapping runs and good inter-play with Corominas when he moved forward into attack.

Brandon Fernandes (8) - Brandon Fernandes was crucial to Goa's attack tonight as he moved around in the midfield and kept searching for openings in the ATK defence. Fernandes was in charge of set-piece duties tonight and provided some good deliveries for his team-mates. The former Churchill Brothers also had a penalty not given in favour in the first half.

Ahmed Jahouh (7.5) - The Moroccan midfielder was the orchestrator in the midfield for the visitors Goa tonight as he kept looking for runs with his long balls and passing across the midfield. Jahouh was also responsible for breaking up the ATK attacks in the midfield and did a good job at that.

Edu Bedia (8.5) - Edu Bedia, one of the many Spanish players in the FC Goa side was incredibly active tonight. He kept the pressure on the ATK midfielders and was involved in a couple of rash challenges as well.The industrious midfielder did well for Lobera throughout the pitch as he fell back to help out his defenders as well. Edu Bedia was adjudged the 'Hero of the Match'.

Mandar Rao Desai (6.5) - The Goan lad was unusually quiet tonight as he lacked his usual creativity and clinical nature in the attack. He missed a sitter from a Coro cross into the box and was kept in control by the ATK defence.

Manuel Lanzarote (7) - The Spanish midfielder had a relatively quiet night tonight as he was constantly marked by the ATK players who recognized his threat. He managed to provide some key passes through the defence in hope of finding fellow countryman Corominas.

Ferran Corominas (8) - Corominas, the sole attacker up front for FC Goa kept the ATK defenders on their toes with his runs. He grabbed the equalizer in the 24th minute with a well-taken chance. He kept attacking from both the wings and was a constant source of trouble for ATK.

Substitutes:

Manuel Arana (4.5) - The Spaniard was brought on for a final couple of minutes and did not have enough time to make any sizeable impact.

Chinglensana Singh (4) - The Northeast man came on in the final seconds of the match in place of Narayan Das and only had one corner to defend as the game came to an end.
