The referee blows his whistle and the first half is underway at the Kishore Bharati Stadium. Stay tuned!
FC Goa take the lead early in Kolkata, with centre-back Moreno heading in Drazic's cross past Subhajit to put the visitors ahead.
A very good start from FC Goa, who have continued to dominate the match since going ahead early. Brison came close with his effort just after the 10th minute, and the winger also teed up a chance that Drazic dragged wide.
Ayush Chhetri earns an early yellow card for a foul 30 yards from goal. The resulting set-piece is floated in with pace towards the near post, and Hrithik had to be aware to grab the ball in the air.
Penalty for FC Goa!! A brilliant lobbed pass from Nemil played Udanta through. The Goa player waited for Subhajit to come rushing, which the Mohammedan goalkeeper did, bundling Udanta down in the box. The referee immediately points to the spot.
Drazic steps up to take the spot kick, and he coolly slots it into the corner as Subhajit dives the wrong way. Goa double their lead.
Yet another good chance goes begging for FC Goa, with the ball being played to Udanta on the right. The winger squared it back beautifully for Nemil, but the latter skies it from inside the box. Manolo Marquez is not pleased.
After two minutes of stoppage time, the referee blows his whistle to signal half-time. It has been all FC Goa in the first half, but the Gaurs should have been three or four goals ahead after dominating the ball throughout.
Both teams are out of the tunnel and onto the pitch. Three changes for Mohammedan at the break, with Makan Chothe, Fardin Ali Molla, and Lalgnaihsaka being brought on, replacing Ragui, Adison Singh, and Fanai. The Black Panthers get the second half underway.
A wavy run from Nemil down the left leads to him picking out Udanta on the other side with a lobbed pass. Udanta's first time shot was goalbound, but Sajad put in a herioc block to rescue Subhajit.
A clash with Jhingan's elbow leads to Sajad hurting his elbow. The full-back goes down in considerable pain, and goes out of the pitch to receive medical attention from the physios. He should be OK to continue.
Drazic weaves past a couple of defenders and was going past Bora too, but the Mohammedan skipper brings him down. Lucky to avoid a yellow card, to be honest. Meanwhile, FC Goa bring on Rabeeh, replacing Nemil.
How on earth did Mohammedan not put that in?! Lalthankima, who came on for Dewan just a minute earlier, makes a brillaint run into the box before cutting it back for Mahitosh. The latter's shot is saved by Hrithik from point-blank range, and Chothe then skies the rebound. He had to score that!!!
The tempo of the match has dropped quite a bit, with Goa putting their foot off the gas. A corner from the right is floated in by Drazic and it finds the head of Moreno, but he can't keep it on target.
The absolutely atrocious finishing that we have seen throughout this match continues. Daniel makes a brilliant run into the box and then selflessly crosses it towards the middle. Yasir lays it back for Boris, but the Goa player blasts it over from 12 yards out.
The referee blows his whistle, and FC Goa have secured their first win of the season as well as their first clean sheet. Mohammedan SC fought well, with a number of good chances, but they return empty handed.
