This was only the Gaurs' third win this season and first in five games.

FC Goa locked horns with Chennaiyin FC at the Athletic Stadium in Bambolim. A fixture that has previously provided so many goals ended in a 1-0 victory for the Gaurs, courtesy a long-ranger from Jorge Ortiz Mendoza. The match saw FC Goa bossing the ball around. Simultaneously, Chennaiyin FC remained composed in their defensive third, a feat which they’ve maintained ever since the inception of this edition of the Indian Super League, until Ortiz flicked one over Debjit Majumder and took Goa to all three points.

The victory takes FC Goa to the eighth position with 12 points from 10 matches, while Chennaiyin are two places above with 14 points. Here are the player ratings of both teams from the match:
