What hampered Delhi the most was the absence of a focal point upfront. Not once or twice, but many a time, there was nobody in the six-yard area to pounce on a delivery. Indeed, the likes of Chhangte upped the ante and knocked at the Goa back line, but they dearly missed a target man.

The Gaurs had to respond after a lacklustre showing in the first 45 minutes, and they did. In the 55th minute, Coro played an exquisite ball to Edu Bedia, the man who was drifting into little pockets of space constantly. The playmaker found the target, but Dorronsoro came charging in to keep his clean sheet intact.

Eight minutes later, Brandon asked questions of the Delhi custodian once again, by firing in a fierce strike that saw the opposition shot-stopper scampering across to deny Goa. And that, summed up the second half for the away team.
