#2 Mumbai City are not learning from their earlier lessons

Jorge Costa and Mumbai City are not learning their lessons. During the first half an hour of the game, they were relentlessly running when Chennaiyin FC were passing the ball around to fizzle them out. John Gregory's plan worked out to perfection as the Blues scored twice before the first half whistle to win the game comfortably.

The exact game plan succeeded for FC Goa in the semifinals where they were rampant in front of goal to win 5-1. Noticing that, the Blues took advantage when Mumbai were slowly moving the ball for the half time whistle. Costa will be furious with the second goal because it was very poorly conceded.

CK Vineeth plucked straight from the defenders feet to set up Jeje Lalpekhlua. Costa has extended his contract with Mumbai City FC, but they need to work on the game plan for the next campaign.
