PEEP! PEEP! PEEP! That's it here. It has finished 2-2 here. Odisha FC took the lead through Diego Mauricio, but it was equalized by Jordan Murray in the second half. Gary Hooper gave Kerala Blasters the lead, but the joy was short-lived as Diego Mauricio restored parity five minutes later. Here's your host Abhishek Kundu signing off. Do stay tuned tomorrow for SC East Bengal vs Hyderabad FC clash.
90+5' What a chance for Kerala Blasters! Jordan Murray squares the ball for Costa Nhamoinesu but rather than taking a shot, he tries to feed a pass to Gary Hooper. Shubham Sarangi clears the ball and that should be it.
90+4' Kerala Blasters make a change.
ON- Jessel Carneiro OFF-Denechandra Meetei
90+1' Brilliant save by Arshdeep there! Jordan Murray gets his head to a long pass and feeds it to Costa. The Zimbabwean guides it towards the bottom post, but Odisha FC's goalkeeper dives full-stretch to palm the ball away.
90' Three minutes are added on.
89' What a save by Albino Gomes! Laishram Premjit Singh is one-on-one with the goalkeeper, but he pulls back to give a pass to Bradden Inman. He unleashes a shot but Albino does incredibly well to palm the ball away.
88' SHOT! Jacob Tratt towers above Jordan Murray to get his head at the end of the corner-kick, but his effort is inches high.
87' A great clearance by Costa Nhamoinesu. Shubham Sarangi lobs a cross towards Diego Mauricio, but Costa gets his head first and averts the danger momentarily for a corner-kick.
86' Denechandra tries to slip a ball to Gary Hooper, but Steven Taylor comes up with a timely interception to avert the danger.
84' Bradden Inman lodges the ball into the far post and Steven Taylor gets his foot to it. But, he is adjudged to be offside.
83' Jeakson Singh is penalized for a foul on Bradden Inman. But, the replays show that it was a clean challenge.
81' CHANCE! Denechandra swings a wonderfully-taken free-kick and Costa gets his head to the ball first. But, the ball ricochets off the shirt of an Odisha FC defender to end in the feet of Gary Hooper. He feeds a pass to Costa and the Zimbabwean acts too smart by trying to backheel the ball into the back of the net. But, Arshdeep isn't fooled and safely collects the ball.
80' Odisha FC make another change. OFF- Jerry Mawihmingthanga ON- Premjit Singh
79' Juande fouls Bradden Inman at the center of the park to stop an Odisha FC counter-attack. He is complaining about a yellow card. That is the second time Juande has done it this season and has been lucky to not go in the books.
78' Odisha FC make a change. OFF- Hendry Antonay ON- Shubham Sarangi
75' Kerala Blasters make a change. OFF- Rahul KP ON- Prasanth Karuthadatkhuni
74' GOOOOOOOOOOOAAAAAAAL! Odisha FC levels things up here as Diego Mauricio gets his second goal of the match.
Jeakson Singh is found guilty once again as Mauricio punishes him. Bradden Inman squares a pass inside the box and Jeakson fails to clear the ball in time as Diego Mauricio stabs the ball home from close range.
72' Another shot on target by Kerala Blasters! Sandeep Singh swings a cross from the right flank and Jordan Murray nods the ball on target. However, Arshdeep was at the right place at the right time to collect the ball.
70' Kerala Blasters have come with all guns blazing in the second half. This time it is Jordan Murray who takes the shot. It is kept on target, but Arshdeep dives to get a hold to the ball.
69' SHOT! Odisha FC concedes possession clumsily as Sahal Abdul Samad releases Gary Hooper. However, the final shot is a little high.
68' GOOOOOOOOOOAL! Kerala Blasters take the lead for the first time as Gary Hooper scores a goal. Sahal Abdul receives a long pass from Vicente Gomez and releases Gary Hooper quickly. Hooper puts the ball in the far post. Arshdeep did get a touch to it, but it doesn't matter as the ball bulges the back of the net.
67' SHOT! Riding high on confidence, Jordan Murray takes a shot from outside the box. It is on target, but Arshdeep does well enough to hold on to it.
66' MISS! That was a glorious opportunity spurned away by Rahul KP. Sahal Abdul Samad swings the ball near the penalty spot and Rahul KP makes a darting run to meet it. However, he misconnects his shot and the ball ends out of play. He was unmarked and should have at least kept his shot on target.
65' Kerala Blasters win another corner here. Sahal has both his hands up. What does that symbol mean?
63' Sandeep launches a cross from the right flank, but Jacob Tratt heads the ball out for a Kerala Blasters corner.
62' SHOT! Rahul KP goes for a goal from inside the box after seeing space gifted to him. However, his shot is inches high.

53' GOOOOOOOOAAAAAAAL! Kerala Blasters equalize through Jordan Murray. Great teamwork between him and Gary Hooper.
Poor defending from Odisha FC as they concede possession in the final third. Gary Hooper wins the ball and rounds the goalkeeper. He lays the ball across the face of the goal after losing his balance, and Murray plants the ball into the back of an empty net. Sajid Dhot was too late to react and clear the ball despite being near than the goalscorer.
52' Odisha FC make a change. OFF- Rakesh Pradhan ON- Daniel Lalhlimpuia
51' Seeing Odisha FC's goalkeeper Arshdeep Singh out of line, Gary Hooper goes for the spectacular. However, the ball bounces on the pitch before ending safely in the hands of Arshdeep. Remember, he did score a goal like that against ATK Mohun Bagan.
50' Vicente Gomez takes a free-kick and skies his effort. Another wasted opportunity there by Kerala Blasters.
48' There are three white shirts in the box as Rahul KP drills a cross from the right flank. The ball ends in the feet of Sahal Abdul Samad and he chips the ball trying to find Jordan Murray. However, the latter was offside and doesn't bother to collect the pass. A poor decision by Sahal there.
46' PEEP! We are back underway here for second half action.
It has finished 1-0 in favor of Odisha FC at half-time as Diego Mauricio gave them the lead in the 45th minute. Don't go anywhere as we will be back with second half action.
45+3' SAVE! Arshdeep Singh punches the ball away from a corner-kick and Sahal Abdul Samad latches on the rebound. The Indian international swings a shot from the outside of the box, but Arshdeep dives full-stretch to collect it comfortably. And, there is the referee's whistle.
Two minutes added on.
45' GOOOOOOOOOOOOOAAAAAAAAAAAAAAL! Diego Mauricio gives Odisha FC the lead at the stroke of half-time.

44' Diego Mauricio releases Jerry Mawihmingthanga inside the box, but the latter's shot is feeble. Sandeep Singh clears the resultant ball.
40' SHOT! Sahal Abdul Samad swings in his corner-kick and Jordan Murray gets a free header. However, Rakesh Pradhan clears the ball out from the line.
39' CHANCE! Rahul KP dribbles past Hendry Antonay and drives a low cross. But, Vinit Rai gets his foot to the ball first and clears the ball for a Kerala Blasters corner.
38' Good defending by Denechandra. Jerry looked threatening there but his effort to dribble past Denechandra doesn't yield any result. The Kerala Blasters left-back puts a nice block to avert the danger.
34' MISS! What a wasted chance by Kerala Blasters! Arshdeep Singh produces a schoolboy error as he gives the ball to Gary Hooper inside the box. However, rather than taking a shot himself, he lays it unselfishly to Juande. The latter's shot blazes above the goalkeeper. Juande should have at least keep his shot on target.
31' Steven Taylor gets caught out of possession again as Sahal Abdul Samad wins the ball. He rides past the challenge of Mohd Sajid Dhot and feeds a pass to Gary Hooper inside the box. The latter takes a shot, but his attempt is way wide.
30' SAVE! Albino Gomes collects Bradden Inman's chipped pass aimed towards Diego Mauricio. That was the most meaningful attack so far in this drab game.
29' Jerry Mawihmingthanga swings a ball towards the far post, but Steven Taylor commits a foul and Kerala Blasters survive another set-piece threat.
28' Sandeep Singh gets a yellow card for a mistimed tackle from behind on Rakesh Pradhan. He gets his third yellow card of the season.
27' Vicente Gomez swings a pass to Denechandra Meetei, but the full-back's attempt of a cross is intercepted by Odisha FC's goalkeeper Arshdeep Singh.
24' Odisha FC gets bodies upfront but the attack comes out to nothing as Vinit Rai's lobbed pass to Jerry Mawihmingthanga is too long.
22' Mohd Sajid Dhot swings a cross from the right flank, but Kerala Blasters' Juande gets his foot to it first. Sandeep Singh acrobatically clears the resultant ball for a throw-in.
21' His effort is far too away from the goal as Kerala Blasters' goalkeeper Albino Gomes watches the ball going out of play.
20' Jerry Mawihmingthanga is fouled by Denechandra Meetei. Rakesh Pradhan to take it.
16' Kerala Blasters hold possession amongst themselves but are not foraying forward. Odisha FC has maintained a good defensive shape so far.
11' Sajid Dhot heads the corner-kick away out of danger.
10' Kerala Blasters win a corner. Sahal capitalizes on a heavy touch by Steven Taylor and drills a cross. But, the latter makes up for his previous mistake and clears out for a corner.
9' Rahul KP drills a low cross from the right flank, but Vinit Rai gets his boot to the ball first. Steven Taylor clears the resultant loose ball. Kerala Blasters penetrate once again into the final third but the quality is lacking there.
6' Denechandra Meetei swings a cross from the left flank, but Odisha FC goalkeeper Arshdeep Singh collects the ball comfortably.
5' Sandeep Singh of Kerala Blasters takes a heavy touch inside the opposition box and Hendry Antonay clears the ball. Kerala Blasters looked threatening there to score.
4' SHOT! Bradden Inman curls his shot aiming for the bottom corner. However, his effort trickles out of play.
2' OFFSIDE! Vicente Gomez wins a second ball in the final third and gives a headed pass to Gary Hooper. However, the latter is deemed offside.
1' PEEP! We are underway here at the Fatorda Stadium in Goa.
Both the teams are out at the venue. Kerala Blasters are wearing their away whites, while Odisha FC are donning their home blacks. Interesting colour combination!
