90+8' PEEEEEEP! PEEEEEEEEP! PEEEEEEEEEP! That's it. The referee has had enough. It has finished 4-3 here at the Kalinga Stadium. And we have our line-up for the first semi-final. It is going to be Chennai City FC vs FC Goa. What a game, we have in our hand. Till then, here is Abhishek Kundu signing off. Take care and goodbye!
90' And now, Nawaz is down with a cramp. You don't see that very often but that is how things are here. 5 Minutes added on, too. Let's see if Jamshedpur FC can get something out from here.
83' GAME ON! Jamshedpur FC makes it 3-4. Calvo sends the ball to the goalkeeper's right but Nawaz dives to his left. There is still around ten minutes left and FC Goa are a man down.
82' PENALTY to Jamshedpur FC and Edu Bedia gets a second yellow card to see Red! Nawaz gifts it to Morgado inside the penalty box but Edu Bedia pulls him down and prevents him from taking a shot.
78' Coro is down on the pitch. Stretcher is out. Let's hope he becomes available for the semi-final. Chennai City FC players, who are in the stadium, will be hoping the other way out. He is stretchered off and a substitution should be coming out anytime soon.
76' GOOOAAALLLLLLLL! And, we have another goalfest here. Calvo takes the ball from the far end of the box and sends a beautiful cross. Cidoncha rises the highest and nods it in to make it 4-2.
73' GOOOOAAAAAAALLLLLLL! And Coro makes no mistake from the spot. The goalkeeper dives to his right but the ball flies towards his left. And, that kick of the ball might have ended Jamshedpur's hopes of making it to the semis.
72' Penalty to FC Goa! Coro lays it off for Edu Bedia who takes a shot from outside the box but Pratik's hands get in the way. Yellow card given to Pratik too.
68' GOOOAAAAL! 3-1 here as Pablo Morgado pokes it in. Poor clearance from Nawaz as it falls straight into the path of Carlos Calvo. He beats Mourtada Fall and picks out an unmarked Morgado on the six-yard box. No mistake from him as it is a simple tap in from here. Jamshedpur still need to score two goals to get something from this game.
67' WIDE! A brilliant curling corner kick from Carlos Calvo and the entire FC Goa defense is rooted to the ground. Farukh Choudhary rises the highest but his header is wide.
64' GOOOOOOAAAAAAAL! And, the Goa magic is flourishing here in the Kalinga Stadium. Lenny swivels past two Jamshedpur FC players in the center of the park and finds Zaid Krouch. The Moroccan has acres of space forward but chooses Seriton Fernandes on the overlap as he is unmarked. The Goan controls the ball with a touch and shoots with the other to give his side a three-goal cushion. It is surely game, set, and match here.
60' SAVE! A brilliant close down from Md Rafique Ali to deny Coro a goal. Edu Bedia finds the Spaniard from 50-yards out and Coro controls it. However, Md Rafique Ali came out of his line perfectly to get a hold of the ball and deny Coro a shot.
58' CHANCE! A crisp one-two between Krouch and Coro but the former takes the ball on the edge of the box and a host of Jamshedpur FC defenders get their way to clear the danger.
54' Frustration showing from Jamshedpur players as Calvo brings down Jacki in the center of the park. FC Goa's fluid passing have done their job perfectly.
48' CHANCE! Brandon to Coro and Jacki and the shot hits the side-netting. Jacki went for power instead of precision there and it cost him there. It should have been 3-0 for FC Goa.
HT| PEEEP! PEEEEEP! And, with that, the referee blows his halftime whistle. FC Goa are on the frontfoot, thanks to two goals from two sublime free-kicks from a similar position. Jamshedpur FC didn't get a goal because they didn't make any effort for it. They were clueless on the attacking third and passed it on backwards. The half-time score justifies the gameplay and if it continues like that, we have Chennai City FC vs FC Goa in the semi-finals.
45+2' GOOOOOOOOAAAAAAAAALLLLLLLL! Voila, it is 2-0 from the free-kick! And, it is Brandon Fernandes who will take the credit. Brandon unleashes a grounder and Edu Bedia makes a decoy run. The entire Jamshedpur FC defense falls for it and the ball crosses the goal-line by rolling. It is given as an own goal to Pablo Morgado as he did get a touch in the last second trying to clear the danger but to no avail.
45' Yellow card to the young Jerry Mawihmingthanga there. He swings an elbow straight on to the face of Brandon and takes him down. Frustration from the youngster and nothing else.
43' No attacking incentive from either side. It looks as if both the teams are waiting for the half-time whistle here. No attacking forays. No pressing. No tackles. Nothing.
39' WOODWORK! Coro with a solo run as no one closes him and he takes a shot. He tries to lob it above the goalkeeper but Md Rafique Ali gets a touch to it. However, the ball slips from his clutches and hits the woodwork. Luckily for him, there was no FC Goa player ready to pounce on the rebound and he collects it comfortably later on.
37' Stoppage in play here as Edu Bedia is down clutching his ankle. He had twisted his ankle minutes before and the medical personnel is down on the field. Lobera wouldn't want his goalscorer to come out of the game so quickly.
36' SHOT! A beautiful curling free-kick from Brandon Fernandes and Fall and Coro towers above the Jamshedpur FC defense. It is the latter who gets the touch but his effort is wide.
30' Jamshedpur FC are just passing out amongst themselves in the back. FC Goa should be relieved by it. Jamshedpur needs to know that it is they who are on the backfoot. They need to find a goal. FC Goa would be happy if things pan out like this for the rest of the match.
27' SAVE! Great save from Nawaz! The 19-year-old lives up to his billing and saves a fantastic one-on-one shot from Jerry Mawihmingthanga. Pablo Morgado swivels past two FC Goa defenders with one touch and finds Jerry's blistering run on the center. But then, Nazaz does his job to keep FC Goa on the front foot.
