That brings an end to our coverage of today's thrilling game. Join the live commentary for tomorrow's second-leg of the second semi-final between ATK and Bengaluru FC. Till then, it is a warm goodbye.
FULL TIME FC Goa 4-2 Chennaiyin FC (Aggregate FC Goa 5-6 Chennaiyin FC) It is all over for FC Goa as a promising season comes to a disappointing finish. FC Goa would have fancied themselves after going into the half-time break but some poor defending helped Lallianzuala Chhangte and Nerijus Valskis come up with two crucial goals in the early minutes of the second-half. With those two goals literally killing the game, Goa always had a mountain to climb as they had to add four more to their tally to progress to the ISL final. Edu Bedia and Mourtada Fall did come up with a goal each in the last ten minutes but it was always an impossible task to achieve after Valskis had equalised for Chennaiyin FC.
As for Chennaiyin FC, their unbelievable turnaround in this season continues as they have qualified for their 3rd ISL final. They will fancy their chances in the final no matter who they face given their recent form.
81' GOOOOAAAAAL! Consolation goal for FC Goa here! Mourtada Fall's shot was deflected initially but Edu Bedia casually stroked the ball into the top right corner to give Goa the lead in this match.
77' Strong defending from Dinliana Renthlei. Ferran Corominas tried to feed a ball after making a good run down the middle but Saviour Gama's decision to take a touch backfired him as it gave enough time for Dinliana to make a block.
73' Another miss for FC Goa as Mourtada Fall could only connect with thin air as he tried to come up with a shot. Vishal Kaith calmly collected the ball.
67' Signs that FC Goa's season is over as both Manvir Singh and Coro miss chances from three-yards out. That should have been a goal even after considering that Chennaiyin defenders came up with crucial blocks on the goal-line.
65' Superb defending from Eli Sabia and Chennaiyin FC. Edu Bedia tried to carve open Chennaiyin's defense with a through ball to Coro but Eli Sabia cleverly stepped across to ensure Vishal Kaith gets to make a routine collection.
61' The game has completely turned on its head and FC Goa simply can't get the ball from Chennaiyin FC. It is a free-kick now for the visitors as Ahmed Jahouh committed a poor tackle.
58' GOOOOOOAAAAAAAAL! Second goal for Chennaiyin! That should be game over as Nerijus Valskis heads the ball into the back of the net after he was supplied with a superb corner-kick. The goal could have knocked the wind out of Goa's sails.
54' The high back-line is actually paying off for Chennaiyin FC! Here, a through ball aimed for Corominas has been ruled off-side. Center-back and skipper Lucian Goian pulled himself back at the right time to ensure Coro was off-side.
52' GOOOOOOAAAAAAAL! Chennaiyin get one back! FC Goa stranded now! The skillful Rafael Crivellaro ran rings around the FC Goa defense before he let out a shot. It should have been a routine save for Mohammad Nawaz but he had instead pushed it back into play. Lallianzuala Chhangte who was at the right place at the right time taps the ball into the back of the net.
48' What a miss from Jackichand Singh! Will this be a telling blow? It was a low cross to which Coro couldn't make any contact while making a turn. The quick Jacki found himself in the middle of the box but he could only scuff the shot in the end. The Manipuri just overran in that situation.
46' Good chance for Brandon Fernandes to ping in a cross but the left-winger puts the ball too close to Vishal Kaith. The goal-keeper duly punches the delivery as Chennaiyin FC breathe a huge sigh of relief.
HALF TIME FC Goa 2-0 Chennaiyin FC (Aggregate FC Goa 3-4 Chennaiyin FC) Free-kick for FC Goa but they don't make the best use of it. That brings an end to an absolutely riveting first half. After Lucian Goian's own goal and Mourtada Fall's header put FC Goa ahead in the match, Chennaiyin FC got a little foothold over the game without creating an clear-cut opportunities. Meanwhile, FC Goa were still on the prowl and the same could continue in the second-half too. Stay tuned.
43' Unlike the first-leg, Seriton Fernandes has had the wood over Lallianzuala Chhangte until now. Yet again, he intercepts the attempted ball to Chhangte.
38' Another contentious call by the referee as Mourtada Fall's contact with Nerijus Valskis wasn't penalised. It should have been a free-kick just outside of the box for Chennaiyin FC.
35' Interesting decision from the referee as he awards FC Goa a goal-kick after Mohammad Nawaz attempted to punch out a Andre Schembri cross. Owen Coyle on the sidelines is furious with the decision but the referee might have just got it right.
33' A tricky back-pass has been kicked far away by Mohammad Nawaz. Later, Chennaiyin tried to counter with a long-ball but Lallianzuala Chhangte is ruled off-side.
25' Wasteful from Corominas as his weak shot from 30-yards out goes away from target. Chennaiyin's Vishal Kaith rightfully lets the ball go out of play.
21' GOOOOOAAAAAAAAL! FC Goa double their lead! After Lenny Rodrigues earned a foul, FC Goa make use of their set-piece opportunity to go 2-0 up. As expected, Brandon Fernandes comes up with a superb delivery and Mourtada Fall finishes off the opportunity with a crunching header.
9' GOOOOOOAAAAAAAAL! FC Goa have the lead! A routine ball from Ahmed Jahouh to Jackichand Singh and the winger puts in a dangerous cross. In an attempt to clear the ball, Chennaiyin FC's skipper Lucian Goian has headed the ball into the back of the net.
8' Chennaiyin FC maintained their off-side line to prevent Goa from a potentially dangerous move. The curled cross from Seriton Fernandes reached Ferran Corominas but the Spaniard was ruled off-side.
4' Free-kick for Chennaiyin FC. The frantic start to this game continues as the visitors have got a set-piece opportunity in a pretty similar position to what Goa had earned a couple of minutes ago.
