90' Added Time: 4 Minutes.

90' Sunil Chhetri was inches away from scoring his second and securing a win for his side. Rohit Kumar on the break sprints on the left flank and flicks the ball back to Cleiton Silva. He eases it to Sunil Chhetri who in one motion takes a left-footed shot but it hits the crossbar. That was so close!

84' Brandon Fernandes comes in and replaces Devendra Murgaonkar while Leander D'Cunha replaces Seriton Fernandes in defense.

69' Roshan Naorem from the right flank charges ahead towards the goal. He dribbles past a FCG defender and then cuts back and fires a left-footed shot with loads of power to the top left corner but Dheeraj Moirangthem did very well to make a full-stretch dive and save it from going in.

67' Roshan Naorem from the right flank takes the corner. He whips the ball at the far post but goes above everyone for a goal kick. Cleiton Silva though seems to be injured as he falls on the ground. He though gets up on his feet and is okay to continue.

61' The champ is...FINALLY...back!!! That moment has arrived. The long wait is over. Sunil Chhetri, take a bow. Captain, leader, legend and the saviour!!! He now has 48 goals in the Hero Indian Super League, the joint-most with Ferran Corominas. What a moment! Here is the goal - Prince Ibara shows his power on the right-wing as he wrestles past Saviour Gama and serves a pinpoint cross inside the box. Sunil Chhetri is left unmarked and he sends a powerful header to find the back of the net. No celebration from the legend, he knows the job is not done yet. It's 1-1!

57' BFC have decided to replace Wungngayam Muirang with Parag Shrivas. Muirang had pulled the muscles of his right leg a short while ago.

56' Roshan Naorem wins the free kick on the right side of the field. He sends a left-footed cross inside the box and the ball goes into the crowd of players. BFC feel that one of the FCG players has handed the ball and appeal. Nothing from the referee.

53' Devendra Murgaonkar and Wungngayam Muirang wrestle for the ball and they both go down in the process. The foul is counted against Muirang who seems to have pulled his muscles. A bit of stretching and he is back on his feet.

46' We're back and so are the players on the field. BFC have made a half-time substitution - Suresh Wangjam comes in for Iman Basafa.

HALF TIME: Bengaluru FC 0-1 FC Goa

Added Time: 3 Mins.

41' GOAAAAALLLLL! FCG have broken the deadlock! In the last few minutes, they have been the dominant team and finally get the reward. Jorge Ortiz this time steps up to take the corner and plays a short one to Alberto Noguera who serves it back to him. Jorge Ortiz looks up and sends a beautiful cross at the far post and this time Dylan Fox finds the back of the net as he leaps and heads the ball in.

40' Edu Bedia in the midfield gets a free kick. He puts in a great delivery at the far post. The ball beats everyone and Dylan Fox should have scored from there. He shoots but the ball goes out for a goal kick.

36' Jorge Ortiz has the ball again at his feet, on the left wing. He finds Edu Bedia inside the penalty area and sends in a loopy cross. Bedia goes for the header but fails to keep it on target. He was off-balance there. A golden chance missed.

36' Jorge Ortiz from the left flank sprints ahead in order to put an able cross but Roshan Naorem was clever to slide in and get the ball away from him. FCG get a corner but nothing comes off it.

33' Jorge Ortiz, from the right flank, shows great skills and tries to go past two BFC defenders but Danish Farooq brings him down and the referee has no second thoughts about that. He stops the play and flashes the yellow card.

29' Iman Basafa gets the ball in the midfield and decides to attempt a long ranger. He fires in a shot but the ball goes well wide of the goal post.

26' Gurpreet Sandhu is down in pain. Edu Bedia had taken a free kick and looped the ball inside the box. Sandhu tried to punch it away and in the process, he collided with Aiban Dohling. It seems to be a head injury and the referee immediately stops the play. The medical team comes out. After receiving some treatment, Gurpreet Sandhu is back on his feet.

24' Needless from Iman Basafa. FCG have won the free kick and Edu Bedia is ready to take it but Iman stands in the way to not let him take it. This doesn't go down well with the referee who flashes the yellow card.

22' Danish Farooq wins the ball in the midfield and nudges it towards Prince Ibara on the right-wing. Prince spends too much time on the ball as he tries to find his way inside the box. Eventually, he eases it back towards Danish Farooq who hits it first time and skies it in the empty stands.

20' That was so close! Roshan Naorem takes a free kick and sends in a superb ball inside the box. Anwar Ali unknowingly stops the shot with his head and it falls in the direction of Iman Basafa who goes for a full-blooded attempt but it flies over the post.

18' Anwar Ali has the ball at his feet after the throw-in from the right side. He swings in a cross inside the box to find Devendra Murgaonkar but his header goes wide of the target for a goal kick.

16' BFC win a free kick on the right side of the box. Roshan Naorem takes it and drills his shot in the direction of goal. It's full of power but the accuracy is not there as the ball shakes the side netting.

12' Glan Martins seems to have pulled his hamstring. He is feeling the pain and is unable to continue. A forced substitution for FC Goa as Martins is stretchered off the field. Princeton Rebello replaces him.

7' Danish Farooq drives forward with the ball and Edu Bedia senses the danger. He puts in a sliding attempt from behind and brings down Danish just outside the box. The advantage is played as Cleiton Silva gets hold of the ball inside the penalty area but Anwar Ali puts out a neat tackle. Later it's found out that Cleiton Silva was in an offside position.

5' It's a tame free kick from Edu Bedia as he hits it straight to the keeper. Gurpreet Sandhu quickly releases the ball and Prince Ibara leads a counter-attack from the right side. He, then, passes it forward for Cleiton Silva who enters the box and goes for the shot from an acute angle. Dheeraj Moirangthem is alert and averts the danger.

5' The ball is served to Jorge Ortiz on the right side and he tries to run away from his marker. Ashique Kuruniyan though tracks him and brings him down. Foul given.

2' Sunil Chhetri gets the ball in the middle of the park and he passes it on to his right to find Danish Farooq. Farooq's attempt to set Prince Ibara free flops as Prince's first touch lets him down and the ball goes out of play.
