What a game that was! It was Balwant Singh, who was the hero, with a stunning hat-trick. Lanzarote scored. Jayesh Rane was no less a hero, with three assists for ATK. Sajid Dhot opened the scoring, and goals from Daniel and Nandhakumar gave Delhi some hope.
But in the end, it wasn't to be for the Dynamos. ATK move on to the semifinals, where they will face either Chennaiyin FC or NorthEast United.
87' Oh what a chance! Double chance! Nandha cuts it back for Shubham from the left but he kicks air, then it comes out to Bikramjit whose shot is blocked. Delhi have a corner.
85' ATK have shut shop in the middle of the park, so Delhi have resorted to playing the ball wide and tossing it in the area. The latest one from Bikramjit is caught by Debjit.
79' What a chance for Chhangte! A super pass from Davila has Chhangte through on goal, but he's got the ball buried under his feet, and just can't manouevre it into a shooting position.
51' GOOOOAAAAALLLLL!!! THAT'S A HAT-TRICK FOR BALWANT, AND ATK HAVE THEIR TWO GOAL LEAD BACK!
That's Jayesh's third assist of the day! Lanza finds Jayesh on the right with a superb through ball, and his low cross to the far post is flicked in by an outstretched Balwant. Super goal! And ATK have a little more comfort!
50' Carmona's low free-kick is cleared as far as Narayan Das, who puts a cross into the near-post area, first time. Chhangte's glancing header is caught by Debjit though
What a half! Delhi took the lead thanks to a super header from Sajid. Then ATK got three in quick succession, and all superb goals, with Lanzarote and Balwant at the centre of it all.. Daniel has given Delhi a lifeline. And it's all to play for in the second half.
45' Johnson loses the ball in the final third, after trying a cute backheel and giving it away to Davila. He's then fouled the Mexcian and Delhi have a free-kick
A superb through-ball from Jayesh, and Balwant is through on the right flank. He has absolutely unleashed a bullet past Albino, who's beaten at his near post! That ball whizzed past the 'keeper even before he could move.
31' Carmona waltzes past Ricky on the right flank, but that's superb defending from Bikey. He's timed the slide perfectly and diverted it behind for the corner
28' GOOOOAAAAAALLLLLLLL!!!! WHAT A GOAL FROM LANZAROTE!
A superb passing move from back to front from ATK! Pritam sets away on the right after a one-two with Pronay, and then puts it wide for Jayesh to chase. He then cuts it back to Lanzarote, who places it at the far post, where it goes in after striking the upright! STUNNING!
26' Ooohhh so close! Nandha skins Ricky on the right flank, and puts in a super low cross, but that's just evaded Daniel in the box. And ATK survive, as the ball whizzes across the face of goal
23' GOOOOOOAAAALLLLL!!!! BALWANT SINGH HAS EQUALISED FOR ATK!
That's a super through-ball from Lanza through to Balwant, who has beaten the offside trap, and is through on goal. With only Albino to beat, the ATK striker has calmly slotted that one past, and ATK are level. Game on!
18' Lanza's nearly scored off a corner again! There's so much curl and whip on that set-piece from the right flank. Albino is flapping at thin air, but the balls has just gone past the far post.
17' Another chance for Delhi! It's a super bit of play between Daniel and Nandha, whose cross to the penalty spot, where Davila doesn't get enough contact on his shot, only to see it easily caught by Debjit.
15' GOOOOOAAAAAALLLLL!!!! SAJID DHOT HAS GIVEN DELHI THE LEAD, WITH A SUPER HEADER!
A lovely set-piece delivery from Carmona to the far-post, where there are two Delhi attackers, but no ATK defender. Sajid is there to easily power a header past Debjit
