GOAL!
Isaac Vanmalsawma levels it for Jamshedpur FC!
One could sense a goal coming. The constant pressure from the home side finally bears fruit.
Aniket Jadhav dribbles past a defender and passes it onto Farukh Choudhary, who Isaac on the right. He cuts back and takes a shot. A nasty deflect off Farukh's hand means that Vishal Kaith has no chance to get to that.
The crowd don't care though...
JAMSHEDPUR FC 1-1 CHENNAIYIN FC
One man team?

HALF TIME!
Nerijus Valskis is the difference between Chennaiyin FC and Jamshedpur FC going into the break.
Jamshedpur will feel that they have created enough chances but not taken advantage of them in the first half.
Chennaiyin though will be the happier of the two teams. Owen Coyle's first game in charge is going to plan... at least for now.
JAMSHEDPUR FC 0-1 CHENNAIYIN FC
Siiii 💙
