PANAJI: FC Goa and Chennaiyin FC played a draw for the first time in 10 fits but, like in most fits, there was a winner.
Chennaiyin FC trainer John Gregory was politically correct right through the post-match media interplay, praising Goa’s magical duo of Ferran Corominas and Manuel Lanzarote. “I wish they were enjoying for us,” he told newshounds, but inside the away dressing room, he would have in my view patted every of his participant at the again.
This was a draw with 90 mins still left to be played in the second one leg semifinal at home but no person was left in any doubt that this tasted as just right as a win for the visitors. A treasured away objective provides them a healthy merit after which there is their defence to bank upon. Chennaiyin FC conceded three objectives within the first 40 mins against FC Goa in their opening struggle this season, after which shut out Goa for 210 mins till Lanzarote scored an opportunistic objective.
“We had clear one-on-one alternatives and to be truthful to (Laxmikant) Kattimani, he made some excellent saves and his group must thank him very much for the saves that he made. He undoubtedly kept the tie alive right up until we controlled to get a objective,” stated Gregory.
The away objective which Goa conceded – again Gregory Nelson allowed so much area to make that run – puts them at a drawback. But if it’s any consolation, Goa can take heart from the fact that they scored three once they closing visited Chennai and have gained three in their 4 fits they have got played there.
“We are a group who usually score a large number of objectives and why can’t we do it there? My confidence is maximum. I think we have a large number of probabilities to be within the final and we need to do things rather well within the next sport,’’ stated Goa trainer Sergio Lobera.
Goa had numerous ownership; 63 percent to be actual, but Chennaiyin infrequently regarded . The former champions had more shots not off course too and like Gregory pointed out, they must have walked away with a 3-Zero victory.
Lobera will take not anything of that. His belief on this group is unshakeable and he is aware of they can still flip it around.
“We have to prepare smartly, recover the avid gamers as temporarily as possible and go there and take a look at to win,’’ stated Lobera.
